Despite little hype entering the Summer League, this former Alabama basketball player has been a revelation in the NBA's Las Vegas Summer League.
Most pundits and NBA Draft scouts didn't think much of Chris Youngblood's draft prospects. He wasn't invited to the combine and ultimately went undrafted. Youngblood spent last season at Alabama, transferring from USF, where he was the Co-AAC Player of the Year the season before.
A preseason injury cost Youngblood the first eight games of the year, and he struggled early to find his footing in the rotation.
