"But Williams wasn't the top performer of the first group. That likely belonged to St. Mary’s guard Matthew Delladova.
Dellavedova is an Australia native who owns essentially all offensive statistical records at St. Mary’s including points assists and 3-pointers made. He showcased all of that on Wednesday at Target Center.
Dellavedova smoothly navigated the floor throughout the day, showing bursts of quickness when he had an open lane to the hoop while also embracing contact in the paint and producing slick fadeaways when necessary. He also surveyed the floor well, finding Davies wide-open in the lane during one 3-on-3 offensive set midway through the workout.
Dellavedova played for the Australian National Team and went to the Olympics in 2012, and he said playing with the national squad did a lot for him in regards to learning the physicality of the game while playing against men much older than him.
He also has the benefit of talking with players like Andrew Bogut about the NBA Draft process. He said fellow Aussies have said to get in as good a shape as you can so you are as effective at the end of workouts as you are at the beginning. He showed little signs of fatigue during Wednesday’s event.
