A poor mans Artest?

Your way off...Prince has one of the worst shots you will ever see, I think Chism has the est chance out of the 3 but I'm not sure he will play in the league either.

I think Chism will see playing time before any of them but Maze after him.

If he buys into that, I think he can make a lot of money.

Unless Prince is committed to playing as a defensive specialist, he will end up overseas. Same can be said for Chism. Although he has a much more advanced offensive game than Prince does, he is still limited offensively in terms of his position in the NBA. He is too small and lacks a true low-post game to play the four position. He doesn't really shoot it well enough and is not quick enough defensively to guard the three position consistently.

He could make an NBA team as a defensive stopper and have a productive and successful career.

In short, Chism has the best chance as he has the most developed offensive game, then Prince, followed by Maze (who I don't think has much of a chance at all.)

JP Prince could be a wickedly athletic Bruce Bowen

Prince has the best chance of making the NBA. He is very athletic, plays good defense, can go to the basket, distributes the ball well and can't shoot an outside shot. His athletic ability will give him the best chance despite his poor shooting.

Prince. 6-7, long arms, good athlete, shows much promise on the defensive head. Also can get to the basket and pass well. If he can just shoot a little bit, he will have a good career in the NBA. Kind of like a Trevor Ariza player.

Bruce Bowen was one of the best shooters in the league... Artest is a much better comparison... or even Ariza

Standing still and set in the corner, he was. But yes, Bowen is not the best comparison.

Does anyone suggesting that Prince has the best chance find it odd that of the three, he is the only one without an invite to play on a summer league roster (at least to my knowledge)?

Chism has two offers, Maze has two offers, Prince? From what I have heard, he is mulling an offer from the D-league and going overseas.

Prince was a fine collegiate player, but outside of a defensive specialist, he has very little shot of making it in the NBA. I would have thought he had a better shot than Maze, but Maze does have a lot of NBA contacts through other players. So, perhaps he is getting some favors called in on his behalf.
