Akognan came off the bench behind Low and Weaver his freshman and sophomore years at WSU, so what makes you think that would have changed by this year? Akognon was not a disciplined player and he didn't want to play within the Bennett scheme, so.......he left to somewhere where he could shoot when he wanted to. Turns out, they definitely could have used his scoring ability in spurts the last couple of years when their regulars got stagnant on offense, like this year against Carolina. Finally, he may be working out with those guys prior to the draft, but teams are by no means lining up to draft a 5'11"(more like 5'9") guard that has little to no passing ability. He's essentially a Nate Robinson clone, who's currently lighting it up for the Knicks to the tune of 13 pts, 3 rebs, and 3 assists per game. In other words, he can put up some points, but he's a 2nd round pick at best.
