Who Do You Like In The Draft?

[mavs777]

Guys that will be gone before we pick:
Karl Town
Jahlil Okafor
D'Angelo Russell
Emmanuel Muddiay
Justice Winslow
Mario Hezonja
Willie Cauley-Stein
Kristaps Porzingis
Stanley Johnson
Kelly Oubre
Frank Kaminsky
Myles Turner
Devon Booker
Sam Dekker
Trey Lyles


Who I like:
Tyus Jones PG - He's not going to be a star, but he can run a offense and is a very high level shooter, he'll struggle on defensive end.
Christian Wood PF- This is my favorite realistic target, oozes potential, he's very long and a very high level athlete, great shot blocker, decent rebounder, solid ball handling skills, finishes well though skinny, needs to put on weight and work on shot selection but he has a very high upside.
Jerian Grant PG- Very high level athlete, good playmaker, has a higher ceiling than tyus jones, can finish in traffic, good free throw rate, question is jump shot, also as a side weakness not a good rebounder
RJ Hunter SG- Has a good track record shooting so not too worried about slip in three point % this past year, capable playmaker and rebounder, decentish athlete, ideal size for 2, knows how to draw fouls

Who I'm meh on:
Bobby Portis PF- Great motor, good instinctual rebounder, but not overly skilled or athletic, ok to decent athlete
Cameron Payne- PG Overrated athlete, not sure he's really a PG, poor size, but a very high level shooter with a good wingspan.

Who I don't like:
Jarrell Martin PF : I don't understand why he is a projected first rounder by draft express
Justin Anderson SF: I enjoyed watching him at college but do not see him as a NBA talent, undersized, iffy ball handling skills, not laterally quick.

The more I watch his videos the more I see poor mans Klay Thompson, I think I might have even read someone else make that comparison elsewhere and now I can't help but see some similarities. He would need to improve his shot a lot to be near that level but just how he moves on the court as well as his length reminds me of Klay. He also has some crafty deceptive athleticism inside and with his length it's very parsons like to my eyes.

I personally like Hunter, Payne, Anderson, and Harrell. If we moved down I like Wright and Rozier.
