Hakim Warrick

Warrick was taken with the 19th pick in the 2005 NBA draft, and after being used sparingly in his first NBA season, he had a breakout second year, by more than tripling his scoring output, and doubling his rebounds.\n', ' Warrick played for Friends\' Central School in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania. In his senior season (2000–2001), he helped Friends\' Central to a 23–2 record and the Friends Schools League title with averages of 15.6 points, 13.0 rebounds and 4.8 blocks. It was Friends\' Central\'s first title since 1974. For his efforts, Warrick earned All-Friends League, All-Mainline and all-state honors.\n', ' Even with his high school\'s proximity to the City 6, comprising Division I programs Penn, St. Joseph\'s, Temple, LaSalle, Drexel, and Villanova, none of those schools heavily recruited Warrick. Syracuse was not initially high on Warrick, either, as Warrick was considered a last resort by the Syracuse coaching staff and was only offered a scholarship when All-American recruit Julius Hodge selected North Carolina State over Syracuse.\n', '
