We're getting a lot of repeat threads (Sabonis) and with the season in full swing there is no better time to start S2's prospect thread! Sabonis is legit - He's a top-10 guy when he decides to enter. Rashad Vaughn - Brandon Roy skillset/size - stock likely to skyrocket. R.J. Hunter - My early and most realistic option for the Blazers - A Kyle Korver-esque shooter but has much more potential with his mid-range game. Intriguing size for a SG: 6'5" with a 6'10" wingspan.

Dakari Johnson of Kentucky really impressed me tonight. He's improved a lot. Wayne Selden's never impressed me. I didn't get to see the early game, wanted to watch Okafor. My darkhorse great team player guy in this draft (Mitch McGary type) is Sam Dekker.
I apologize if this is corny but with names like Stanley, Norman, Bobby, Cliff, Buddy, Wayne, Willie you would think it was the draft class of 1915.
8 pts (3/3 FG) 7 rebs in 6 min. for Sabonis. If Sacre can make it in the NBA I think Przemek Karnowski (7'1.5" 295 lbs.) has a chance. Moves like he's in wet sand but he's huge and smart.
Karnowski clogs the paint, has a nice little hook and can pass out of the post. He can make it in the league. Sacre was my least favorite big Gonzaga ever had. He was garbage. The worst touch, rebounded like pussy and annoying. Never liked him. Sabas Jr. has a motor that never stops.
I used to think Wiltjer could be a pro in the Ryan Anderson mold. But, he is just so weak physically. If he's not facing up on offense, he's worthless. Money shooter. Still has a lot of work to do in the gym.
I think yet another UCONN Point Guard is going to become a hot late 1st round commodity, Ryan Boatright. He is your typical UCONN guard... Smart, quick, decent defender despite smaller size and can shoot/get to the line.
Yeah, he is tiny but look at Kemba and Napier coming into the NBA. Kemba: 5'11.5 184 Napier: 5'11 175
I believe so. Our pick went to Charlotte last year, and we couldn't trade any other picks until that pick was finally used.
They still can ball though as bench players. Would be nice to have an up tempo second unit guard who is disciplined.
