- Shamorie Ponds just turned 22 years old. This means he still has a chance to stick in the NBA. Big fan of his game. He's a slithery ball handler with great touch around the rim and a huge! heart. During his college days, he was one of the best scorers in his conference and broke many records in his time playing for St John's. He went undrafted, but still managed to make the NBA even if it were just 4 games. Had these 3 things been different, he would still be there. I for one am hoping he gets another shot at making it back. Let's see what happens.

Shamorie Ponds issue is one that a lot of guys have who are trying to make their way into the league or just trying to stick on a team: What else can you do? Anybody who has watched this guy from high school to college at St. John’s knows that he can score. He is shifty crafty around the rim and when he gets it rolling can fill it up with the best of them. But when your talking about the the highest level, the NBA, there are a bunch of guys who can get a bucket. So what else you got for me? Can you run a team? Can you consistently lock somebody up on defense? Can you be a consistent 3 point shooter from the pg spot? Those are the questions teams are probably wondering. I feel like he has the skill level to play in the league but it’s all about finding the right situation.
Very well said.
Stunted Growth appreciate it my guy. Keep up the excellent work.
T
Went to my highschool he's definitely a bucket and crafty like most lefty's he'll end up in the league again
St Johns Stand Up Again!!!
I love Myles Powell too! I root for him, I hope he can make it to the league
He want bro that's my bro too..no real point guard skills height will hurt buddy as well...
It's more about staying.
I'm hoping myles makes it. He's buckets all day and can lead a team! Had a great year, sad thing is height. If he had more athleticism I dont think it would be a problem. Markus howard from Marquette is another dude that's actually like 5"7.
Yea. Love that guys game
Corey Buchanan lol Markus Howard ain’t no damn 5’7
Wowwwww THANK YOUUUUUUU @STUNTEDGROWTH !!!! This is my GUYYYYYYY rightttt Cheaaa.... lol, you the man bro. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
#iLOVeYOUrCHAnneL
Shamorie was measured at 5'11.5" without shoes... in my opinion he should focus on just being a PG. If he can't, he should stay overseas where it's not that important to have size
True
Good point.
Good lookin out for the Johnnies themed and Big East themed content
Bro a BK Legend
Saw him at a HS all star game at MSG a few years ago. He was amazing!! Had about 30!
I think he should of came out his sophomore year
you know who Ponds remembers me of? Darrel Mitchell. He played for LSU in the early 2000s, he had similar size (5'11") and also played shooting guard and point guard. He thrived overseas
i liked ponds' game. u r correct in saying that at his size he should have concentrated a bit more on distributing. but in today's nba, pt guards still need 2 b able to nail that 3. he reminds me of another lefty out of ny named mouse mcfadden, cleveland state guard that averaged 19 or 20 a game. a scorer in a pt guard's body. this just goes to show that the pt guard position is the most competitive, by far. there r millions of boys that r closer to 6 ft tall graduating from high school. on the other hand, there r only thousands of kids 6 ft 8 or taller every year. the kids 6'8 or more don't have to compete with as many kids as the 6 footers. good video
Would love to see an episode that breaks down how smaller guards can stick in todays nba. Because there are so many guys like Shamorie Ponds who can ball and score but are undersized and cant do else. BUt they are still talented. I mean, as a knicks fan, look at guys like lamar peters who is stuck in the g league despite putting up numbers. If he were 6'3-6'5, he would be a starter in the league. Sad but crazy for these undersized dudes.
He' from NYC. the league and execs HATE NYC players especially guards. 😂🤣😂🗽
This an early one. He still got space, although limited. If you going this Early Jelly Fam Isaiah Washington has to be on the list. 3 colleges. Appreciate the work..love a lefty who can shoot. I think the days of pure Pgs are done. We see a lot of combos masquerading as PGs now. IMO the new nba reminds me of HS, in the sense of you give it to your best player mainly a wing and they play all over the court, bring the ball up, create offense, whatever the case maybe. Granted you play through your best player, but it's rare in bball I grew up watching if that guy wasn't Magic, rarely the best player also facilities the offense like we now have in (bron, harden, Westbrook, lavine,) just to name a few.
He transferred again wow.. I thought he would of stayed at Iona
Gotta do NYCs next big thing...Rawle Alkins
Ponds is only 22? Yeah he's better off going overseas. Damn maybe he can get a shot in the league in a year or 2. It's not easy. Thanks for sharing, JC. I never heard of dude.
Thanks for the Johnnie love, again your on the money w/ his short comings. He’ll do fine and have a career overseas
Man that’s my guy they just didn’t mess with his game, smooth lefty!
Another Dope Video Keep Going 💯💯💯
P.S Don’t forget about My Guyyy Marcus Paige
I LIVE RIGHT ACROSS FROM HIM GREAT CONTENT BROTHER
Another great video my g. Keon Lawrence that Jersey love
MyTeam just gave him a 94 diamond card on 2k. S/o to him for making it & going undrafted
He still young
Do one on Filaaay...he is a pro now but overseas.
Crazy how alot of these colleges dont give accurate heights. They did that with Collin Sexton. The Alabama roster had him at like 6"3, 6"4 but dude is 6"1 at best. I guess they count his hair lol
Yeah it’s a known fact that colleges an even most of the NBA teams will exaggerate heights
Another banger, as usual 🔥💪🏽
I think he still will do it!
I’m rooting for Shamorie!!
He would be a nice fit with the sixers with Ben Simmons running the point n not wanting to shoot Ponds would be free to do what he does best score
Good point
Next video Arthur Lee from Stanford? Him and brevin knight had a dope backcourt in the 90s.
Isaiah Washington gonna need one of these soon
Already got one on here 😅
Stunted Growth I just came across your channel yesterday, im a hoop head so these videos are crazy dope to me, keep going bro 💫
Been waiting on this one!
I wondered what happened to him, he definitely should be in the league. If Raymond Felton go in,Ponds definitely should be in.
Raymond was one of the best PGs in the ncaa
@@MikeLoveThyself Thank you!! #putsomerespeckonhisname
Dude was NICE.. my wishlist: Martell Webster, Gerald Green, Von Wafer
Love this guy and I pray he gets the chance to prove a lot of NBA execs wrong. Knicks should sign him asap!
Never heard of this kid good vid
You Deff Gotta Do A Quincy Douby 🥶🥶🥶 #ConeyIsland We Got Too Mamy Ballers
It’s crazy to see bey in this video
I went to a Timberwolves vs clippers game earlier this year, Lou will and pat beg were injured so he played 30 minutes and only had 5 points, but he ran the offense well and had a clutch defense stop on Andrew Wiggins
He is incredible in NBA2k as a backup scoring PG off the bench
Man these are dope! Can we get a DJO (Marquette) one next.
I really liked his game
Y’all need to do an episode on Rysheed Jordan and Marcus Lovett
Need Gary Forbes next
5'11 SG that's always going to be a long shot unless you're super fundamentally sound and skilled or you're just simply a Generational talent.
Sir valiant brown from GW and Shawnty Rodgers of GW
Rodgers was cold number 54 short guy with a big game
He should of never went st.johns they use to develop a lot of pro's back in the day but the last 20 years only person I remember is. Ron artest.
9:17 I see you using Proballers! It's an excellent website
He's got time. With more teams leaning more towards playing small ball in the league nowadays being a tweener isn't as much of bad things as it was in the 90s.
This gonna be good
Shamorie did everything right. I’m just not sure he did wrong. From my understanding he was supposed to graduate in 3 years. It was a coaching change coming that he knew and Mike Anderson’s first year was not that good.
💯🔥🔥
Can you do a piece on isiah Washington and the jellyfam ?
You got to do Jacob pullen from Kansas state he was fire
he already did: th-cam.com/video/xWivMZdrzMo/w-d-xo.html
Can you do Byron Mullens next? Guy was best guy in his HS class and was projected to go number 1 by Rivals, shit I thought his game would translate perfectly and it just never happened
Please please please do derryck thorthon they used to call bro the next Kyrie
Can you do one on UNCs Ademola Okulaja?
Can you do a video on Anthony Randolph
How about Marcus Lovett, Malik Newmann, or Billy Preston? Some of my fave players to watch back in hs.
Pond is so smooth tho, he just needs to up his percentages alot, work on his shooting and shot selection
Whatever happened to lebryan nash
Only room for one LeBr__n in the league at a time 😆
I think Speedy Claxton would be dope to see too
Do Trae Jefferson

This is a 10 minute piece on why Ponds is struggling so far to land on a team. There's nothing extraordinarily special about not making an NBA roster other than than the fact that he failed to make a roster. He can play. He's really good, but that's life. No sense in playing Monday morning quarterback and telling the virtual world why Ponds has yet to make a roster. Here's a couple of things to consider; 1) He's still young at 22 so there's hope 2) Thousands of really good players fail to make an NBA roster. Sometimes it timing, fit, or in some cases the kids coming out are not ready for that transition. Enough with the overexplaining on why a kid didn't "make it". It's friggin really, really hard to make the NBA, much less stay in the NBA and make a sustainable career out of it regardless of talent.
True.
Shamorie won in my opinion! Scholarship from a great school. No student loan debt! Will get paid good money overseas to play the game he loves. Sounds like a win to me. NBA isn’t everything.
NYC
We definitely want Trevor Duval lol
Another NY guard, we do this but... 🤷🏾♂️
This jaylen hands is no where near better then shamorie ponds
Kristopher Wilson Maybe not, but for the NBA he fits better. Bigger, more athletic and in his true position. Ponds is an undersized shooting guard masquerading as a pg. Like his game, but he's really small.
remember jordan farmar
I mean he did get to play in the nba for a couple of minutes
Nolan Smith or Josh mcroberts
How is his growth stunted and his career hasn’t really started
Do UCLA Jordan Shipp

PLEASE DON STEFAN MOODY FROM OLE MISS DUDE WAS CRACK
He stayed to long should have left after his sophomore year problem is he is a 2 guard in a point guard body.
Never heard of dude so maybe he isn't stunted growth 🤔 he just irrelevant
Straight politics why he didn’t stay in the league , he gave so much NBA superstars work in College
He a baby lol
Curtis Kelly or Charles jenkins
