We need this kid

He is an athlete, competitor, good ball handler, excellent passer and most importantly a phenomenal defender

His shot isn't great ... Kinda bad actually but his defense is awsome

If he is available when our pick comes around ... We need to make him a Hawk

Robert Upshaw out of Washington has the most upside in the second round IMO. We'll just need to really look into his background as he was dismissed from two teams. Worth the risk for a second rounder though, especially at a position of need. He's one of the better rim protectors in the draft.

I've watched Tokoto closely for three seasons and have never been impressed with his pro prospects. He's a solid defender with elite athleticism, but I don't see him ever being much in the league. Becoming a defensive specialists is his ceiling.

Oh, and having a heel on my NBA team would suck too.

If we're able to get a legit guard in the 1st round. I would love to steal dakarai johnson off the board from kentucky. He will be a solid center, nazr mohammad like. I see him in our range there in the 2nd.

dude has like a 5 inch vertical ... Big big mistake for him coming out early ... Cal should have pursuaded him to stay Edited by capstone21

two extremely overrated players

 

I wouldn't say they're overrated, Andrew is really good and Aaron really just couldn't find his rhythm this year but that's both due to playing on a team surrounded by so many talented players.

I'm a Kentucky hoops fan and even I say no to Dakari for us, he really can't bring much to our squad. He isn't very athletic, I feel like I've seen him travel a thousand times, I just feel like there are better options.

they came in touted as the top pg and SG. Neither shoot over 400 and both are very slow of foot

Coming out of high school they were overrated yes, but in honesty they used their size more than anything to score then. They have both came a long way since their freshman years though. In the right system they could be solid. 

 

Plus you can't teach size and a 6'6 PG couldn't hurt to have on defense

You can't teach speed or athleticism either which they don't have.
