Redick's back injury has healed, allowing him to resume working out for NBA teams this week in anticipation of the NBA draft, coach Mike Krzyzewski said Tuesday. During his annual summer news conference, Krzyzewski said Redick had a disk problem that caused him to cancel workouts with Orlando and Boston. He said Redick is contrite about his June 13 drunken driving arrest in Durham, which wasn't as much of a hurdle for his draft status as the back injury because he said the arrest was out of character. Nonetheless, Krzyzewski said he chided Redick for having his mug shot in the newspapers. He said Redick is penitent. "He understands that (he made a mistake) and has paid the consequences," Krzyzewski said. "That goes with the territory. Thank goodness nobody was hurt. He learned a lesson."
That's true but he never disclosed a reason for pulling out of that workout. Maybe he has that guarantee at #12 or #11 from us.
Carney has really grown on me, the fact that TMAC likes the kid makes me think that he would perform at his best with TMAC as his mentor. His shooting seems to be a plus which I think he has an advantage over Brewer in terms of that area of his game. Brewer just doesn't excite me at all.
Man, if he falls to our 2nd round pick, fine, but there's no way I want to draft a player with our 8th pick who has a disc problem. No way. Too bad, because I like Redick as a player. Damn, that's bad news.
Exactly! This is my 2nd biggest reason for wanting Carney over Brewer. (Providing we don't trade up for Morrison/Roy/Gay)
