He's a terror in the open floor with his ball-handling skills, blazing speed, and court vision. The 6-foot-7 guard is explosive off the bounce and a threat above the rim. Thompson's athleticism is the first thing that jumps out. Charlotte Hornets - Amen Thompson, G/F, Overtime Elite A jumbo-sized, sweet-shooting wing like Paul George could ultimately be his ceiling. His shot selection can sometimes be shaky, and he'd do well to add some weight, but there's no denying his immediate fit for whichever team drafts him. He's a long 6-foot-9 and has an excellent 3-point stroke, and he has increasingly grown as an on-ball playmaker for himself and others. Miller has a near perfect game for the NBA. 2 spot but shot a historically poor 8-for-41 (19.5%) in Alabama's three March Madness games. Miller then played some of his best basketball to end the regular season and was seen as a candidate for the No. The past few months have been a roller coaster for Miller, starting with his off-court issues in February.

All this to say, the electric point guard will need to improve his outside jumper or be so dominant with the ball in his hands that his size and shooting won't matter if he wants to live up to his draft billing. He averaged only 2.7 attempts per game from beyond the arc.Īt 6-foot-2, Henderson is the shortest player projected to go in the first round. A lot of those concerns stem from his shooting - he made just 27.5% of his 3-pointers across 19 games this season before getting shut down. Lost in the bright lights of March Madness and the ever-growing hype surrounding Wembanyama, Henderson isn't being talked about nearly as much as he was in the fall. Houston Rockets - Scoot Henderson, G, G League Ignite Detroit shouldn't think twice about selecting Wembanyama. His defensive chops are equally impressive as he provides elite rim protection and can quickly close out shooters using his 8-foot wingspan. Wembanyama can pull up from deep in transition, hit jumpers coming off screens, and hit tough fadeaways in the post. He's a 7-foot-4 shot-creator who can score at all three levels and possesses a release that's virtually unblockable.
