2020 Draft Profile - Saddiq Bey

Jeremy Woo - Sept. 16th: "Bey isn’t very dynamic off the dribble, nor is he extremely explosive, which probably limits him to role duty. But as an active team defender and trustworthy, mature player, he should be able to contribute early and deliver value in this range, with starting-caliber upside."

Gary Parrish - CBS Sports - July 6th: "But he quickly developed into an intriguing prospect who averaged 16.1 points (while making 45.1% of his 3-point attempts) this past season for a Villanova team that shared the Big East title. He's versatile on both ends and an ideal wing prospect for the modern NBA."

NBA Draft Room - July 6th: "Bey has nice size for the SF position and a strong build. He’s not an elite run/jump athlete but can hold is own, and shows quick hands on D and a solid understanding of the game, gaining position and seeming to read the play before it happens."

HashTag Basketball - July 1st: "Saddiq can take defenders off the dribble or knock down threes. He is a high-level ball-handler for a player his size, but if he is going to play with the ball in his hands, he will need to improve his playmaking ability."

USA Today - June 25th: "Bey was the Wildcats' best player with a breakout sophomore campaign, averaging 16.1 points and shooting 45 percent on 3-pointers. He'd be an ideal fit as a role player on any NBA team. "

NBA Draft Room - May 26th: "Excellent 3pt shooter with good length and strength. A 3&D prospect who had a break-out sophomore season."

Kyle Boone - CBS Sports - May 26th: "The list of 6-8 wings who can defend 1-4 and shoot 3-pointers at an elite clip in this draft begins and ends with Saddiq Bey ... He's got a quick release and can thrive in a system where he's called upon to be a knockdown shooter who defends the opponent's best offensive weapon."

Jeremy Woo - SI - May 6th: "Bey profiles as a rock-solid role player, offering defensive versatility and perimeter shooting in a low-maintenance offensive package that should fit into most lineups. He’s skilled and big enough to play both forward spots, and took a big leap forward this season for a Villanova program that’s consistently churned out useful NBA players."

Jeff Goodman - Stadium - May 6th: "Bey, who possesses a high basketball IQ, just does a little bit of everything. He’s a terrific defender with length who can shoot it from deep."
