D.J. Strawberry is a 6 foot 5 inch Senior guard for Maryland. He has good length and athleticism and can be a lock down defender. Offensively, he still has work to do on refining his shot. With a good senior season he could become a second round draft pick, but he is likely better off to be undrafted so that he can go to a team that will best utilize his defensive talents.
Currently nbadraft.net has him at #58 and DE has him undrafted.

The 6'5 swingman who gets 25-30mpg, plays defense, and leaves the boxscore empty is becoming more sought after every day (Stevenson being the newest member). He seems to have responded well to taking on a leadership role this year. I think he'll be a solid early-mid 2nd-round pick.

After a two-hour workout before Washington Wizards officials Friday at Verizon Center, Strawberry, a 6-foot-5 guard, repeated the word "defense" over and over to the assembled media as if he needed it to stay alive, or, at the very least, to have a chance to make an NBA roster.
"Everybody that I've talked to says that the way I'm going to get on the floor is defensively and the way that I'm going to stay on the floor is my ability to hit open shots," Strawberry said. "That's what I've been working on, just putting up a lot of shots and being able to hit open shots and still be able to maintain that defensive edge that I have over everybody."
