Former Syracuse star Buddy Boeheim has worked out for three NBA teams, according to Adam Zagoria. The New York Knicks, Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors all got a closer look at Buddy, and he was absolutely scorching hot during his workout for the Knicks. 

Also according to Zagoria, Buddy Boeheim was 71-80 (89%) from three during his workout for the Knicks. Even if unguarded the. entire time, that is still an incredibly high percentage and speaks to Boeheim's shooting ability. That is his biggest asset when looking for a potential NBA landing spot. 

Buddy also participated in the NBA G-League Elite camp Monday and Tuesday. On Monday, he finished with eight points on 2-9 shooting (all from beyond the arc) during the scrimmage. Tuesday was a much better day for Buddy, who scored 20 points on 6-10 from three point range.

While Buddy could have returned to Syracuse due to the NCAA granting an extra year of eligibility to student-athletes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, he indicated all season that the 2021-22 campaign would be his last. That was indeed the case and he finished last season as the ACC's leading scorer. During the 2021-22 campaign, Buddy averaged 19.2 points, 3.1 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game, all career highs.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
