I think his success will depends on where he goes. A team like Phoenix would be perfect. Learn behind Nash and come in as a sparkplug. Or another uptempo team in the West. He can play halfcourt but he would be great in an open court game. He'll have som trouble with bigger guards, but he's a tough kid too. I wasn't sure he was an NVA player before this year, but now I think he can, in the right situation. Luther Head also. The one I think that will be drafted too high is Deron Williams. He might prove me wrong, but I just don't think so.
Fred Hoiberg would be the best comparison, wouldn't he? Career 40% 3-point shooter, shooting over 50% this year. He's slight build, 6-5 and plays shooting guard. And is slow of foot like Reddick. He's made a decent career for himself as a 15-20 minute reserve role player. If Reddick has Hoiberg's career he should consider it a success.
And Hoiberg averaged 20ppg his last 2 years in college.

Have ANY of you guys remember Drazen Petrovic from the NETS who was killed over seas in a car carsh??? He scored 110 points in a game overseasonce. He was the BEST PURE SHOOTER hwen he played in the NBA. This is who Reddick will mirror in the NBA. Reddick is a great 3 point shooter and the best free throw shooter in the world. He will be a top 5 or 6 choice if he goes. Yes not a quick white boy but nevertheless a pure 2 guard in the NBA by far!
As for comparisons, Nash and Heinrich are 2,000 times better ball handlers and decision makers than Reddick. I think Journeyman hit the nail on the head when he said Steve Kerr. I think Reddick's success lies on who takes him. If an NBA team uses him right, he can be a very good player in the NBA, but he has to have help to get shots, he cant create his own like the great NBA players.
