On Monday, Baker was named Batter of the Week by the North west League for his solid hitting during the fi rst week of the season.

Emerald Draft continued from page 1 make. Christensen, who played with Jones for four years, believes they’ll be significant. “Freddie will be a better NBA player than he was as a college player,” Christensen said. Other than guard Jay Williams, Christensen said Jones has the quickest first step of all the play ers in the draft. Christensen added that Jones’ decision to at tend Chicago pre-draft workouts while injured helped show po tential teams his dedication. Kent, however, disagreed. “The reality is he had an injury,” Kent said. “I don’t think it hurt him or helped him.” Christensen said Jones would fit in best with an athletic, fast-paced team such as Sacramento or Dallas. Except for Miller, Indiana features a young, energetic squad featuring former Trail Blazer Jermaine Frederick Jones, selected 14th overall by the Indiana Pacers, became the first UrsHotiraf dt alt->:d- from Oregon since 1991 and only the eighth all-time first-round pick from the University.

Indiana’s head coach, former NBA great Isiah Thomas, is known to be a good judge of talent. Per haps Thomas picked Jones know ing teams selecting after Indiana coveted the former Oregon star. Some question the pick, howev er. ESPN.com’s NBA Insider Chad Ford believes the selection was un wise. Ford wrote that the selection was too high and that Jones should have been picked no sooner than perhaps 21st. Jones led Oregon to the Elite Eight last year and was selected as the team’s MVP. Jones, named a third-team All-American by Basket ball limes and a fourth team All American by the Associated Press, finished his career with the Ducks ranked in eight top-10 categories.
