Branden Dawson a lottery pick next year?

He is now projected to go 11 in next years draft by this site. How do ya'll feel about that?
His lack of perimeter game is almost Rodney Williams-like, but there is no doubt he can come back next year and have a great season and pull an Oladipo.
(without giving it much thought)... He could he be the strongest player at 6'6.

He'd have to make a quantum

He'd have to make a quantum leap in his perimeter skill in order for me to put him in the lotto because right now he has no perimeter skill. Otherwise he'd have to be a K.Faried level undersized PF.

He has alot of the same

He has alot of the same qualities that MKG has except Gilchrist has superior ball handling abilities to Dawson. No reason why Brandon can't be an energy Gerald Wallace type of player at the next level

He is a beast in college but

He is a beast in college but he is a classic undersized 4 at this point. I don't see him developing the rest of his game to the point where he will be a lottery pick. He could be a first rounder because he is very athletic and plays with great energy. He would be a guy who could instantly give a contending team 10 or 12 tough minutes a night.

give him time

He is still improving his game. He has become a better ball handler (still not good, but improving) and his defense is superior(in college). I think he can be a Tony Allen type player, but at the 3 spot which is where he started at the begining of the year.
