Draft Projection: Late first to early second
Positives: Big-time shooter with deep, deep range on his jumper. Long arms and good elevation on his jump shot. Fearless ... he'll let it fly from wherever. Decent rebounder for a guard.
Negatives: Foster is pretty one-dimensional. He's not very athletic. Needs to add strength. Poor ball handler. He rarely gets to the line.
Summary: Sometimes you just need to be excellent at one thing to make a name for yourself in the pros. Foster is such a great long-distance shooter that teams will have to give him a look in the second round.

He looks pretty athletic in his youtube clips. They make his sound like a bulky thick ankled SG in the Adrian Griffen mold. He's actually looks similar to Rip Hamilton as far as body type and athleticism.
I hate that we didn't move up but I really like this pick. You can never go wrong with a shooter (assuming that his shooting translates to the next level).
