Quotes:

Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer succinctly summed up where Ferguson is at in his development and what teams will have to expect should they take him in the draft on June 22nd:

"“A superb athlete with extremely streaky shooting ability, though he’s a long-term project and must learn the details of the game.”"

Talking to Matt Velazquez of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel at the NBA Draft Combine last week, Ferguson detailed what he learned the most off the court during his time in Australia:

"“Just learning the basics of being a professional,” Ferguson said, “which is just take care of your body, the recovery, the food you put in your body and take care of your money, spending right and being smart with it.”"
