I like Hodge and think he will be a decent role player in the NBA. He looks a lot like a Point Forward to me with high BB IQ. I dont see any reason why he cant be someone similar to Shane Battier.
To me, Hodge has the skills to develop into a tall point guard in the NBA. He handels the ball well, has good court vision, speed, and passing skills. He does not have a very good 3pt shot, but it's not a prerequisite for the position. I like tall point guards, and this year's tourney has showcased how talented this kid really is. He is projected to go in the second round, but will probably move up a bit after his tourney performance.
