The Baltimore Sun is reporting that Acquille "The Crime Stopper" Carr is planning to enter the 2014 NBA Draft. For those who don't know, Carr is one of the best and most hyped up talents to come out in a long time. Despite his height (at 5'10"), he has NBA speed, range, quickness, and hops (think Nate Robinson). At the end of his sophomore year, he already had 28 scholarships (can you believe it?)

I was just thinking since we're obviously out of the running for the Marcus Smarts, Nick Johnsons, Jabrari Parkers, and Andrew Wiggins... maybe we could nab him in the late 2nd round or something?
As our record in the last 10 games indicates, we need more speed and athleticism and I think he fills a desperate need. Unlike Danny Green, he can actually dribble and put it on the floor.
I know you guys have questions about his height, but we've seen players under 6'0" excel (even recently). TJ Ford, Chris Paul, Isiah Thomas (who we passed up), Nate Robinson, Kemba Walker, Patty Mills, Ty Lawson, Darren Collison, Allen Iverson, Johnny Flynn, Lowry, J. Nelson, and Earl Boykins.
He averaged 25 ppg (AS A FRESHMAN)... they're calling him the most electrifying player in the nation. Points, steals, and passing... he can do it all... inside, outside, whatever...
