Toney Douglas, the 29th overall pick in this year's NBA Draft, is making quite the name for himself in Las Vegas this summer. Douglas, a 6-6' combo guard out of Florida State, has been running the point for the Knicks in the team's first two Summer League games. So far, he's racked up 21 total assists, while only turning over the ball twice. That's practically an 11:1 assist-to-turnover ratio. Ridiculous. Douglas, whose draft rights were purchased by the Knicks on Draft Night, still hasn't found his shooting stroke, but Knicks coaches and league scouts are raving about his ability to run the floor, manage a game, create shots for his teammates and, best of all, defend the ball. I can get behind that, even after only two games.
