Are these guys good enough to make the end of some NBA team's bench, or are they destined for the D-League?

They're basically PF's in a SF's body. High basketball IQs, pretty good shooters, but lacking in strength and quickness.

What say ye?

I always say anytime you can draft a 24 year old who puts up 6/3 in college you do it.

Nah. I would say if Ryan Kelly can make it they can, but he's a better outside shooter and more skilled.

I'm torn on these guys. Every time I'm about to write off their future in the NBA, they do something to make me think they could hang around for a few years on the end of someone's bench.

In the end, though, I don't think they'll make it. I think they either end up in the D-League, Europe, or just get on with their lives doing whatever it is they're going to do.
