title is pretty self explanatory.
im convinced Justin Anderson will be a big time player. three and D type player with an NBA size body
i personally dont get the love towards Emmanuel Mudiay. i dont doubt what larry brown saw in him when he made his comments last year, but i think playing in china really messed with his development. d'angelo is the real deal, im not convinced on emmanuel. he should be a late lottery type pick, not #4

I think Trey Lyles has the potential to be a future all star. He is basically a prototypical NBA stretch 4 and the openness of the league will be more beneficial.
I really can't find a guy I hate that could be drafted in the lottery that I think will turn in to a bust. I think WCS really needs to end up on the right team.
I think one of the foreign guys will flame out per usual.
I think Okafor has the potential to be an all-star, but I think the Lakers pairing him with Randle would be a disaster.
Come back to me in like a week or 2 after I go draftexpress crazy

I agree with you on Anderson. Gonna be a good player. I disagree with you on Mudiay. Great size and athleticism. His style translates to the NBA. I don't know if he will be a star, but don't think he's a bust.
I'm worried about guys like Kelly Oubre and Booker. Oubre has all the measureables, but only averaged 9ppg and 5 Rebs in college. And Booker is strictly a shooter. He doesn't bring much of anything else to the table. If his shots aren't falling, he's a non contributor.
And I don't think he's gonna be a bust, but Winslow measuring in at 6'4.5" without shoes at the combine was surprising and worries me a little.
I think Bobby Portis, Stanley Johnson, Cameron Payne, and Jerian Grant all will pan out and be solid players and contribute early on. Really like Portis game. And I like Myles Turner a lot as well. Might take him some time to get acclimated to the NBA, but if/ when the light bulb goes on for him, he could be a very good player.

Deangelo Russell is a guy i really like. So smooth, can handle the ball, get to the rim, and shoot. Nice all around game.
really like Winslow too. 6'6" with shoes on and has a 6'10" wingspan. He'll be fine. He's thick and strong and can handle the ball.
Devin Booker is a guy 3-4 years from now we will wonder why he went so low. Knock down shooter.
"busts"
Im not really high on either of the Wisconsin duo. See both as end of the bench role players. I like Kaminsky more, I think Dekker will be overmatched in the league.

As far as long shots, I think JP Tokoto could be a steal in the second round.

pan out- hollis-jefferson,grant
think tokoto could be a nice steal in the second
i don't wanna say bust but not sure how good harrell can be at the next level where the guys are so much bigger. i do think he can carve out a niche a la big baby

Mudiay will lead the Knicks to the promised land(I can dream.)
I'm partial to Booker bc his first cousin is good friends with my roommate.

I think Emmanuel Mudiay and D'Angelo Russell will both be very good NBA players. Both are combo guards whose games translate well to the NBA.

justice winslow will be special

Towns will be like Bynum in his mini-prime with the lakers.
WCS will be a better version of deandre jordan.

small forward with a 6'5" standing reach? Great NBA size body there. He'll only be giving up 5 inches to Lebron and Kawhi, 6 to Paul George, and 7.5 to KD.

I'm not sold on KAT. I think he is limited physically, which in today's NBA, doesn't fly. I see alot of players in this draft as 6th-8th men. Also, I think alot depends on who gets drafted where. I think if the T-Wolves take Okafor, he does alot better there than in LA.
I wouldn't take Mudiay in the Top 15. Same with Oubre. Booker should have stayed in school and worked on the rest of his game.
Steals: Both Kaminsky and Dekker. Both have the height and athletic ability needed in today's NBA. WCS. If he can get a jump shot.
