Vanvleet would be a nice 2nd round guy too.

Edit: T.J. McConnell also.

I was moderately intruiged by him last year and it looks like he has gotten leaner. I haven't seen him play this year. I would be interested in getting him in the 2nd round.

Maryland playing east coast finesse ball. How they ever got in the Big 10 is beyond me.

I like Trimble for Maryland, but I doubt he is a 1 and done.

Yes he played for a few teams he was picked like 24 in the first round I believe. I remember when he was with the Kings and I went to a game in Denver. We were there very early so we were able to stand in a section near the court and we were watching the scrubs warm up. That's when I realized up close just what type of athletes NBA players were. Cleaves was absolutely ripped and he was a fringe NBA PG.

- Michigan State with a big win over Virginia. Watching how they play defense makes it hard to fathom how Payne looks so lost out there sometimes after four years under Izzo. Hopefully it's just rookie jitters.

- D-Russ's body of work is complete with the loss to Arizona. At this point, it's hard for me to rank him ahead of Okafor and Towns on the Wolves big board. He's extremely skilled, but doesn't have elite size or athleticism for an NBA wing.

- Okafor, Towns, Cauley-Stein, Winslow, Johnson, Kaminsky.....Guys to watch.

- I noticed that DX moved Kaminsky up on their mock draft. While he doesn't have great athleticism, it's getting harder and harder to ignore his elite skill set.

Okafor has been looking really impressive, there's no way that I take Towns over him.
