I want him and Bender in the 1st round.
I guess it's a zero chance Ainge taking him at 2nd round because Thon would be gone by then.
He appears to be leaps and bounds better than pre-draft Whiteside. I believe Maker could even be better, including pro-ball projection, than pre-draft Kevin Garnett. He has better ball handle, dribbles so well as a 7-footer, has very good jump shooting mechanics, better post moves (KG didn't have much of this in his arsenal other than making follow up or putback shots) and is quick in transition.
