Top Mid-Major Impact Transfers for 2013-14--
Mid-Major Madness
Trey Lewis, Cleveland State: Gary Water's backcourt gets bolstered a bit with Penn State transfer Trey Lewis coming home. Lewis averaged over 5 points per game in Happy Valley, but its his performance at Garfield Heights High School that caught Water's eye. Lewis averaged 23 points, 5.1 assists and 4.8 rebounds for the Cleveland based high school in 2011.
Jordan Sibert, Dayton: The Flyers are another Ohio based school that will get a boost from a Big Ten transfer. 6'4 guard Jordan Sibert joins Archie Miller's squad after playing at Ohio State. Sibert averaged 11 minutes and 3 points per game during the Buckeyes Final Four run two years ago.
Carlton Brundidge, Detroit: The sting of Ray McCallum's graduation won't hurt as much with Michigan transfer Carlton Brundidge. Brundidge didn't play much in his one season in Ann Arbor but the 6'3 guard averaged 20.9 points, 6.6 rebounds and 4.8 assists for his high school career.
...
Jay Harris, Wagner: Harris was a Top 100 recruit when Valparaiso signed him a couple of years ago and now he finds himself ready to suit up for Bashir Mason after a year off. Harris has two years of eligibility left and averaged just over 9 points per game in his last campaign for the Crusaders. (Added 8/1 3:00 PM)

8. Ray McCallum, No. 36, Kings: Sacramento has a knack for finding undersized scoring guards. Two years after uncovering Isaiah Thomas with the final pick of the draft, the Kings found McCallum early in the second round. He showed an ability to get to the rim and finish throughout the Kings' schedule, a rare combination in Las Vegas. He's still learning how to be a point guard and was prone to some pick-and-roll coverages that forced him baseline and took his scoring out of the equation, though.

8. Detroit: Ray McCallum Jr. turned down offers from powerhouse programs to play for his father, Ray McCallum Sr. With McCallum at point guard, Detroit reached the NCAA tournament in 2012 after the Titans won the Horizon League tournament. But he’s gone now. And he’s not the only key player that Detroit will miss. The Titans have lost their top four scorers from last season. Somehow, Detroit must find respectable offensive contributors who can make up for the loss of McCallum (18.7 PPG), Nick Minnerath (14.6 PPG), Jason Calliste (14.4 PPG) and Doug Anderson (12.1 PPG). McCallum could face his toughest season as a head coach in 2013-14.

Five surprises from the Las Vegas Summer League--
Sports Illustrated
Ray McCallum Jr., Sacramento Kings
Second-round picks have a lot at stake in summer league, but the 6-2 McCallum — selected by Sacramento with the 36th pick — played well enough in Vegas to secure a three-year deal on site. The primary selling point was McCallum’s driving ability. Few guards available at McCallum’s price bring the same level of athleticism and control. He seems to have the quickness necessary to break down the first line of defense at an NBA level. From there, he displayed an ability to change direction, finish with both hands and connect on floaters and acrobatic layups. He can convert on a variety of attempts around the basket, making him a somewhat reluctant passer, but that could soon change as he plays with more talented shooters and big men in the NBA.
Also impressive was the way McCallum navigated the casual style of summer league, which involves few set plays and even fewer well-executed ones. Without much structure, many primary ball handlers tend to simply call for the ball and wait on the perimeter when they aren’t in control. McCallum, on the other hand, made some nice cuts and set screens for his teammates — minor actions in the grand scheme of things, but decisions indicative of sound basketball logic. It’s early, but McCallum — who had a 23-point performance in Vegas as well as a 12-point, 11-assist outing — looks like a nice pick-up for the Kings on a cheap, three-year deal.
