Seth Lundy emerged as a tremendous shooter after four years at Penn State and the 23-year-old is looking to showcase that ability and more at the next level.
Lundy, who was named to the All-Big Ten honorable mention team, averaged 14.2 points and 6.3 rebounds on 40% shooting from 3-point range in 36 games. He ranked 37th in the country in 3-point percentage and was second in the Big Ten in 3s per game (2.6).
The 6-foot-6 Lundy finished his college career with 1,282 points to become the 39th player in program history to reach the 1,000-point milestone. He also ranks sixth in career 3s (229), ninth in free-throw percentage (81.4) and 20th in points.
Perhaps most impressively, Lundy improved each year on campus.
He averaged career highs across the board this past season and saw a massive jump in 3-point percentage, up from 34.8% as a junior. Overall, Lundy was the second-leading scorer on a team that picked up its first victory in the NCAA Tournament since 2001.
Now, Lundy is looking ahead to the next level.
He is projected to be a second-round pick this year given his potential to develop into a 3-and-D player at the next level. He boasts a 6-foot, 10-inch wingspan and is regarded as one of the top shooters in the draft with his ability to knock down shots in a variety of ways.
Lundy was among the prospects that competed in the draft combine last month in Chicago, Illinois. He emerged as one of the standouts after averaging 15 points, 3.5 assists and 2.5 rebounds on 73% shooting from 3-point range (8-of-11) in two scrimmage games.
He has worked out with 11 teams throughout the pre-draft process and is rising up mock drafts as a result. He has received strong feedback from teams as they believe he has the potential to make an immediate impact on the court.
Rookie Wire caught up with Lundy this week to discuss his career at Penn State, training for the draft, team workouts, his potential role in the NBA and more.
