Houston Rockets Select Wisconsin’s Sam Dekker

“With the 18th pick in the 2015 NBA Draft, the Houston Rockets select Sam Dekker.”

Those were the words that gave Dekker the biggest sigh of relief as he waited for his name to be called by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver tonight in Brooklyn, NY.

Who is Sam Dekker?

A sharpshooter who can knock down all kinds of shots.

Some might compare him to a current NBA veteran sharpshooter in Kyle Korver, of the Atlanta Hawks.

Me personally, I’ve been saying Dekker reminds me of a more athletic version of former NBA player, Keith Van Horn.
