Centers...
Logan Wilkens is young and raw. He can shoot a little and hes very strong. He isn't especially athletic. His post game is pretty bad at this point. Not a shot blocker. Raw player that could've used 2 or 3 more years at Duke.
Darius Motley is a huge young man with the ability to score inside. Can handle. Very strong. Raw. Has upside but isn't much of a shot blocker and his mid range game is weak. A project that could be a solid starter eventually.
Joe Morton is a huge strong young player that loves to score in the post. Solid post defender. Doesn't do much else besides score down low. Not athletic. Mediocre rebounder. Might get a block and a steal.
Kody Swift is a solid scorer and post defender. Can score inside and out. Not especially strong or athletic. Rebounding is only average. Can steal, handle and play post defense. Solid late Round 1 selection.
Erik Striker is a very strong defensive first player. Might get a block and a steal a game. Very good man to man defender. Offense is raw. Will take some ill advised three's. Poor rebounder.
Ken Holzman is solid. He can score inside and from mid range. Solid rebounder. Pretty strong. Decent post defender. Will probably be a very good 3rd big man.
Power Forwards...
Aaron Gifford is a raw young big man with huge upside. Pretty athletic and strong, Gifford is raw. He can score a little inside and from mid range but he needs improvement in both areas. Solid rebounder and post defender. Wont block or steal.Solid handles.
Evan Montgomery is another big time young PF. Older then Gifford but Montgomery is a little more polished. Better mid range game. Better handles. Can block and steal. Solid post defender. rebounding needs some work.
Dante Childress is a prototypical post PF. He loves to score down there. Dominant scorer. Very good FT shooter as well. Very good ball handler. Can play great post defense. Plus rebounder. Wont block shots. Not especially athletic.
Stephon Allan is another raw young big man. Allan was actually a SG until his Senior year in HS. He grew 6 inches over the summer before he started classes at Arizona. Allan is still working on his game and probably shouldn't have come out this early. He can do a little bit of everything but really doesn't excel at anything right now. Allan gets 3 freebie RCs on draft night. The freebies can go to any 3 categories. And those 3 categories can be RCd again normally.
Marcus Salling is a talented young post forward. Can score in the block. Good ball handler. Should block one shot a game. Decent rebounder. Strong. Mid range and athleticism are less then ideal.
Nicky Strong is a very good post scorer. He is a great offensive rebounder. Solid post defender as well. Mid range game is mediocre. Wont block or steal. Not athletic. Poor defensive rebounder.
Phillip White is a utility power forward. More of a shooter then a post scorer. Solid handles. Can steal some and defend the post some. Very good rebounder. Strong.
Tim Harvey is a solid backup post type guy. Can defend. Might get a shot a game. Solid rebounder. Decent inside and mid range game. Upside is limited.
Small Forwards...
Jackie Harrington is a top HS recruit that is a glue player. Very athletic and long. 6-10 with a 7-2 wingspan. Can steal and will even get a block. Solid jump shot. Good handles. Amazing passer. Nice rebounder. Very good man to man defender. Scoring will be an issue but he does a ton of other stuff and he has great upside.
Quentin Newman is a small college player that loves to score. Can score inside and out. Doesn't prefer to pass. Handling and defense are issues. Can rebound. Strong. Athletic. Solid upside.
Andre Lue is a young SF prospect with tons of talent. Very good mid range shooter and can steal. Strong. Good leaper. Not especially fast. Three point shot needs work. Cant really score well at the basket. Big upside here though.
Sergio Iba is an under developed young wing player. Decent shooter. Quick and athletic. Strong. Good passer. Solid rebounder. Cant really score inside. handles are an issue.
Leon Overton is a perfect SF for an inside offense. he can score inside and from mid range. Doesn't shoot 3's. Great handles. Solid rebounder. Should get a block and a steal a game. Upside is limited buit could start right away and be a 3rd option in an inside offense.
Ricardo Childs is a solid 5th starter type. Solid shooter. Can handle. Should block and steal. Good rebounder. Pretty athletic. Upside is limited
Shooting Guards...
Marcus Sapp is BBS ready. Could go #1. Can score inside and out. Great mid range game. Solid handles. Can steal, maybe even block. Solid man to man defender. Should start from Day 1. Early ROY candidate.
Gerald Davis has a legitimate chance to go #1 overall. Very good inside and mid range scorer. Great handles and quickness. Solid rebounder. Not very strong. Not a leaper. Uncanny ability to finish at the rim. Big time potential.
Courtney Page is a shooter with big time upside. Loves to shoot from everywhere on the court. Not overly athletic. Handles are just mediocre. Defense is poor. Rebounding is worse. Inside game is horrid.
Donnell Watts is a small school PG that doesn't have the ball skills to play PG in the pros. Can score inside and out. Super quick. Big time jumper. Very athletic. Upside is pretty much non existent. Should be a very good combo guard backup for a couple years.
Gage Houston was a big time football prospect that spent most of his College career on the bench as an insurance policy for his basketball team. In the fall Houston had 2 concussions in back to back weeks and quit the football team. Now hell try his turn at basketball. Declared mostly for financial reasons. Has little to no actual basketball skills.
Ricardo Massenburg is a troubled but talented youth. Hasn't played for a year because he couldn't get accepted to any major colleges. Can shoot. Pretty athletic. So raw. Has some handling issues. Not much of a rebounder. Raw Raw Raw. His real potential should be rest to 100 after his first 3 TCs. He can have 5 ACs and 5 RCs.
Jalen Bix is a solid SG prospect. He is a pretty good outside scorer. Very quick. Can block and steal. Limited upside but he could develop into a starter eventually.
Noah Claxton is a very athletic SG. He can leap through the roof. He can score well from inside and out. Solid handles. Poor rebounder. career backup.
Keyon Kittles is a solid shooter, defender and ball handler. Could start right away. Will get steals. can board. Mediocre upside.
Point Guards...
Jingjing Wang is the probable #1 selection. He is an elite talent and will be a great player. His position is somewhat uncertain because of his handling issues. He has a great mid range game. Amazing quickness and passing. Can block and steal. Can board. Might be more valuable at SF to better use his blocks and steals. Obviously his rebounding will develop more at SF as well. Handles are bad, but potentially workable at PG. Will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Terrance McCoy is a big strong solid PG. He can score inside very well. Decent handles and passing. Solid rebounder and defender. Lacks upside.
Douglas Terry is a solid defensive PG that has handling and scoring issues. Might not make it as a PG.
Oscar Haynes is a raw athletic PG with huge upside. Pretty mediocre offensively and defensively. will need lots of AC/RC work.
Jesse Foster superb ball handler that might become a starter just based on that. Decent jump and 3 point shot. Can pass and steal.
Chico Claxton solid strong BBS ready player. Probably just a backup, but should come in and give solid minutes. Good shooter. Can steal and board. Handles are decent.
