My list right now
1. Embiid - lost, indecisive but at times dominates the game on both ends of the court. Looks and plays like the dream when he is on
2. Exum -During the World vs Usa and U19 this past summer, he was better than alot of the usa players. Superb size for a pg , good passing skills and elite ability to drive and finish around the basket
3. Gordon - A bit of a tweener but unlike Parker can guard both pf/sf spots extremely well. A defensive force , who is all over the court and is an excellent team and weakside defender. High iq. Underrated offensive game and that is a consistent jump shot away from being an excellent two way player
4. Wiggins - Super athletic player that should be able to score on anybody. Has to become stronger, be more aggressive and work on driving and finishing with his left hand. A cross between Derozan and Terence Ross
5. Parker - Very skilled offensively , can score in many different ways, handle the ball, pass , post up. Needs to work on his defensive game and stamina in general. Body shape is better to play the PF position, but has sf skills. Worse case = Derrick Williams part 2 , which is not a good thing
6. Kyle Anderson - Slo mo or not, just too much skills not to go in the top 10. He has been a walking triple double machine from the start of the year. Amazing passing skills for a sf, can rebound, block shots, score on the drive, has a mid range game and now has a three point jump shot. His defense at the next level is a concern, but he is so long and has a high iq to make it up in other ways.
7. Randle - A force on the inside. Excellent rebounder due to excellent boxing out skills. Has to try a little harder to score on the inside , especially vs length. Hasn't really shown much of a jump shot and needs to work on it to excel at the next level. Lack of length is a worry.
Has a decent handle, passing skills and good bbiq. Like a wider Antoine Walker that likes to work in the paint and not jack up threes
8. TJ Warren - A 6'8 sf scoring machine. He knows how to score in so many different ways, it's hard to stop him. To make up for lack of great athleticism and quickness he will work extremely hard on the court. Will be usually the first one up the court to score transition baskets, dive for balls on the defensive end, run around screens non stop until he receives a pass. Defense at the next level is sort of a concern. Likes to steal the ball, and anticipates to steal instead of trying to stay in front of his man.
9. Tyler Ennis - Reminds me of Sam Cassel. Not that athletic or quick but once he gets a head start, can beat you to the basket. Unselfish and excellent court vision but also when the game is on the line can get you clutch baskets. Good team defender but only decent individual defender
10. Marcus Smart - Excellent defender and high end abilit to drive and finish around the basket. A bulldozer that plays with emotion. Too much though at times and can be out of control. Turnover prone, poor shot selection. Streaky jump shooter. Imo should be a SG at the next level and let someone else run the point. Simplify things for him.
Outside looking in
Vonleh - A very good looking future nba PF. A Pure pf that has excellent size, length and good athleticism, quickness . Has underrated offensive skills. Can block shots and rebound. But has a mediocre iq, feel for the game. Still if he can put it together, a future double double machine
KJ Mcdaniel - Super athletic/quick SF. On the same level as Wiggins if not even more explosive. Elite shot blocker , excellent rebounder and overall defender. Still learning to beat you offensively and has a decent looking jump shot, drive and finish and in the later part of the year was passing the ball at avg of about 3 a game. Mediocre iq, feel for the game and shot selection concern. Reminds me of Vince Carter. (better defensively but not as good offensively)
