Braun, Nembhard in the 1st-Round Mix Brown appears to be on the fence of the first round. Scouts see a professional, even if there is no visible path upside down. In the 1920s, it would depend on a team being willing to compromise on adding a rotating player in exchange for a bigger swing. He helped himself to the combination, where he continued to strengthen his case as a winger who can play games for teammates on ball screens. It is worth watching how the first years of his career will go, if he lands with a playoff team and not with a reconstruction team like the Oklahoma City Thunder. There is a lot of evidence that the teams put in stock. Nembhard’s performance with 26 points and 11 assists in Chicago caught everyone’s attention given the freedom he had compared to the role of coordinator he played for Gonzaga. Creates buzz as an option in the 20’s. The playoff teams could see an NBA-ready backup they could trust to run on offense and make good decisions and quite a few open shots.

Slippery players Rising prospects mean that others must fall. Brown, Baldwin and Montero sound like the most vulnerable players to be selected in the first round. Brown’s lack of attack became more worrying as the season went on and his defense did not seem strong enough to make up for the lack of creativity and bad shots. The results of the speed and speed tests in Chicago were impressive. Baldwin has the scouts nervous about his brutally ineffective season, his historically low vertical numbers and his seemingly casual approach. The comments about Montero were mainly about the scouts’ desire to see more and hear more positives from the Overtime staff.
