Noa Essengue is one of the hottest names in the draft space right now. He's been a really important player on a really good Ratiopharm Ulm team. He's a prime candidate to shoot up the draft board in the final week. #nbadraft

Yanic Konan Niederhauser was the big combine riser this year. He rose so much that he decided to stay in the draft and it will likely be the right call. He's an athletic big man that is a lob threat. Defensively he's still pretty raw but he's got good tools. #nbadraft

Ryan Nembhard is a smaller PG who is a high level passer. I hate that he's 6'0 because if he was 3 inches taller, he'd be in the conversation for the first round. He'll likely tear up summer league but I see him more as an overseas guard. #nbadraft

Caleb Love has been in draft conversations for years now. We know who he is. A shot chucking guard who can really shoot but can't run an offense at a high level. We will see what happens if he can scale down his role. #nbadraft

Kobe Sanders is a big PG who was quietly having a good season at Nevada. He went to Portsmouth where he showed improved mobility and footwork on the defensive end. This really caused him to be shot up in the rankings for NBA teams. #nbadraft

Cedric Coward has been the hottest name in the draft over the past few weeks. He barely played at Washington State but has an incredible work ethic, knows who he is, can really shoot, and has insane tools. #nbadraft

Nique Clifford really changed my mind this year. I was a skeptic last year but I'm now sold. He's a wing that can do it all. He had another year of sample of shooting the ball. He handled the ball and truly was playing at an All-American level down the stretch. #nbadraft

Carter Bryant is a defensive minded wing with NBA size. He can hit catch and shoot shots when open. He wasn't utilized very well at Arizona but teams seems a lot more potential. There are questions about his on-ball creation but could be a high level role player. #nbadraft

Egor Demin is the best passer in the class coming in at 6'9. He's got obvious limitations but you don't get players like him very often. A lot of what he needs to work on is very fixable. There might not be a bigger boom or bust prospect in this class. #nbadraft

Arthur Kaluma has been on NBA draft radars for a long time. A defensive minded wing with NBA size and strength. If he shoots it, he has the potential to be a high level role player but he's got to be able to buy into his role. #nbadraft

Tre Johnson is an elite shot maker with good size. It's not easy to put up nearly 20 PPG but he did it. The defense needs to improve but it's fixable stuff. Once he gets a coach that runs sets at a high level, Tre Johnson could be an elite off ball. #nbadraft

VJ Edgecombe was one of the most hyped up players heading into the season. Overall, I'd say his season was a little disappointing but he still showed great potential. He shot better on pull-ups than expected but worse around the rim than expected. #nbadraft

Matthew Cleveland has been an example of an ultimate tease for the past four years. He's been on NBA draft radars all this time, has good size and athleticism and can shoot. This season, he had a really good year on a horrific Miami team. He'll get a chance by somebody #nbadraft

Jamir Watkins has been a favorite of mine for the past couple years. He didn't exactly take a step forward this season but his stock stayed pretty stagnant due to his athleticism and size. The NBA Draft Withdrawal Deadline is today, I have no idea what he does. #nbadraft

Alijah Martin is a tough nosed guard who does all the dirty work. He makes winning plays and was a big part of some really good college basketball teams. He's a little undersized but could find a way to make it in the league. #nbadraft

I do this a bit in advance of when I publish them. I had Milos Uzan's done and he withdrew. I think he made the right call by withdrawing and going back to Houston. I like the idea of him, but you can get players like Uzan on a minimum if you really wanted to. #nbadraft

Alex Condon broke out this season at Florida and established himself as a legitimate NBA prospect. He's an offensively minded big man that might be able to shoot it down the line. The question is the defense and how effective he'll be. #nbadraft

Walter Clayton was the hero of the NCAA Tournament. He helped win the title after losing in the round of 64 the year before. He displayed his shot making ability and made big plays in the clutch. The only catch is he's pretty small and not really a PG. #nbadraft

Asa Newell was a top HS recruit that played really well at Georgia this season. He's not the most athletic or the biggest big man, but he was a good rim finisher. He's smart and does have potential to shoot it. The question is whether or not he does. #nbadraft

Sion James is a real deal defender who can really pass the ball. He's got decent size and strength for a wing. The question is how he does anything offensively. He'll need to play with a great passer so that he can score off ball in order to have a chance early on. #nbadraft

Tyrese Proctor was one of the most infuriating players to watch for Duke fans. He was a constant tease with his size and abilities but would make frustrating plays in games. He really improved as a shooter and off ball player this year. #nbadraft

Khaman Maluach has been one of the most polarizing players in this class. He's got all the tools you'd want out of a big man but he had an underwhelming statistical season. He's got the potential to shoot it even if it's not very likely. #nbadraft

Kon Knueppel was one of the most impactful freshman in the country this year. An absolute sniper from 3, is strong ,and has decent size for a 2/3, he'll get a lot of attention. He's not the fastest but he's impactful. #nbadraft

Cooper Flagg is one of the best prospects of the decade. He dominated college as a 17 year old and won NPOY. I imagine he plays some PG in his first year in Dallas given their lack of PG's with Kyrie out. Then will transition more off ball later. #nbadraft

Tahaad Pettiford is an electric scoring guard who's really athletic. He's got a lot of potential at the college level, but the question is whether or not NBA teams view him as a real player in the league and give him a guaranteed contract to keep him in the draft. #nbadraft

Yaxel Lendeborg was one of the best mid-major players in the country this season. He's got ideal wing size and can do a multitude of things on the court. If he doesn't stay in the draft, he'll transfer to Michigan where he'll have a similar role to Wolf this year. #nbadraft

LaBaron Philon is a smart guard who can score in a variety of ways. He's got good size and doesn't make a ton of mistakes. He needs to develop physically before he makes a real impact but he's got the tools be a starter in the league. #nbadraft

Mark Sears had an underwhelming year that was riddled with inconsistency. He had moments but other times it felt like he was "too cool for school." He's an electric scorer that can pull up from NBA range. He's strongly built but doesn't have great measurements. #nbadraft

Johni Broome was one of the best players in college basketball this season. He's an undersized big man who's physically imposing. He's dominated everywhere he's gone and has shown a bit of an ability to shoot the ball. He'll be an interesting name to watch pre-draft. #nbadraft

Payton Sandfort had an underwhelming season after breaking out last year. His efficiency dropped and he stagnated in everything else. He's also dealing with a torn labrum and will miss out on the pre-draft process. It'll be interesting to see what teams do with him. #nbadraft

John Tonje was the big surprise breakout star in college this season. He went from being fine at Colorado State to a legitimate All-American at Wisconsin. He can really shoot the basketball and get to the rim. The question is his movement. He's got NBA skills though. #nbadraft

Vlad Goldin has been a known name in college basketball after FAU made it into the Final 4. He had a good year at Michigan and was physical, rebounded and played hard. The question is whether or not he'll be able to move well enough to defend but he's got good size. #nbadraft

Kam Jones is an electric scoring guard who was one of the best players in the country this past season. He had a rough stretch in terms of his efficiency in conference play, but everyone was gearing to stop him. He'll be an interesting player to monitor pre-draft. #nbadraft

Danny Wolf is basically a 7 foot point guard who can really pass the ball. He's also shown an ability to hit 3's. The issues include the turnovers, the shot form, the defense, and the athleticism. However, given his talent, he could end up working in the right system. #nbadraft

Grant Nelson has been monitored in the draft community for a while. He popped as a mid-major darling and had his moments at Alabama. He's athletic and can handle the ball a bit. If the shot ever comes around, he'll be a real addition but if not, he'll be a solid big. #nbadraft

Amari Williams is a high level rebounder that can pass the ball. The concerns are that he struggles to stay on the floor long periods of time, his lack of defense despite his tools, and offensive role in the NBA. #nbadraft

Otega Oweh is a high energy guard that has defensive tools to be a high impact player in the NBA. It all depends if he can shoot and if he cleans up his shot selection. Despite this limitations, there are fans in NBA circles. #nbadraft

Koby Brea is a lights out shooter and that's his NBA skill. He's got good size but is not an NBA level athlete. However, given his size and NBA level shooting already, he could be interesting to bring in and maybe get a rotation player really cheap. #nbadraft

Jaxson Robinson was a good player at Kentucky and filled his role. We know who he is. A solid 3nD wing who has good size and can struggle defensively. He's an excellent shooter who can shoot in a lot of ways. His sell is simple to NBA teams. #nbadraft

Brooks Barnhizer is a tough nosed wing that was one of the best players in the Big Ten. He is currently in the portal so we will see what happens. He could be an interesting guy to monitor next season if he decides to stay in college. #nbadraft

Will Riley is a polarizing prospect given the skills. He's got great size and can be a microwave scorer but the questions of what else can he do?, the inconsistencies, and the fact he was coming off the bench is a little concerning. He's still got appeal and talent. #nbadraft

Kasparas Jakucionis started out red hot but started out having issues during conference play. He still had flashes of great play but the lack of athleticism and high level shot making came down a bit. He's still interesting as a potential big guard that can pass. #nbadraft

Sean Pedulla was one of the standouts at the Portsmouth Invitational. He dictated his way and came up with clutch buckets. He didn't measure in very well but he did enough to indicate that he could have a shot in the NBA as a backup PG. #nbadraft

Chaz Lanier was one of the best scorers in the country this season. He's electric shooting and size made him an easy target to NBA teams. He's got his deficiencies with the defense but he has the tools to be passable at some point if he works at it. #nbadraft

Adou Thiero had a breakout season this season at Arkansas. He showed his potential as a defensive wing with a growing offensive game. He still has a questionable shot but a team with a good shooting coach could be able to get a high level role player out of him. #nbadraft

Boogie Fland was a top ranked recruit that had an up and down season at Arkansas. He's known for his defense despite the lack of good defensive tools. He'll be staying in the draft and we will see what happens. #nbadraft

Micah Peavy has been a big breakout player at Georgetown this season. The shot went in this year and showed his potential as a 3-n-D wing. If the shot improvement is real, Peavy will be someone that gets buzz during workouts. #nbadraft

Max Shulga was one of the best mid-major players in the country this season. He made a step forward in his efficiency and helped lead VCU to the tournament as an 11 seed. He's had issues against high-major opponents but has appeal as a big shooter who can pass. #nbadraft

Javon Small was a breakout player and was one of the best players in the Big 12 this season. As a defensive minded guard with an ability to score, Small could be one of the risers from draft workouts. #nbadraft

Thomas Sorber was one of the breakout freshmen this season. He's big, can move well, and is a force in the paint. His season ended with a foot injury and time will tell if he stays in the draft or goes back to school for a big payday. #nbadraft
