Milwaukee Bucks Pre-Draft Workouts: Nigel Hayes, Hamidou Diallo among attendees
By Adam McGee
L.J. Peak
Guard – 6’5″
L.J. Peak had an extremely impressive junior year, even managing to finish the season playing at a level he’d never quite managed to maintain before.
For the season, Peak averaged 16.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists, while shooting 48 percent from the field. Although Peak only shot 32.7 percent from three-point range on the season, as Draft Express noted, he made 46 percent of his long shots over his last 15 games.
Much of what NBA teams will be trying to figure out about Peak in workouts will be whether that was evidence of him having cracked the code with his shooting, or simply just a positive blip on the radar.
Away from his shooting, Peak possesses a long wingspan relative to his height and throughout his time in college he successfully leveraged that into making important defensive plays.
