     Scouting report on Clemson SF K.J. McDaniels, who is slated to go somewhere in the 20-30 range.  McDaniels is a freak athlete who needs to fine tune the technical aspects of his game (shooting, ball-handling).  On defense, he’s a good rebounder and shot blocker, but, mostly due to bad form, falls victim to his man getting by him off the dribble.  I think his ceiling is basically 2013-14 Gerald Green if he can find consistency from three point range.  Scouting report here:

     Nice scouting report. Ive only watched McDaniels in two games this year (Duke and Maryland) and I wasnt to focused on either game but from what I saw McDaniels has huge upside and both games he played like the best player on the court. Im definitely on the bandwagon he is as exciting as they come. I like the Gerald Green comparison offensively and athletically, defensively in college he reminded me of James Johnson but in the pros he wont be as versatile, James is a bit taller and has about 30 more pounds of muscle.

       I agree that he probably is more physical on defense than Green.  Johnson didn’t block quite as many shots, but aside from that, I think it’s an accurate comparison.

    I’m hoping the Thunder can pick him up late in the 1st round!

      That would be a scary 1-2 if McDaniels hits his ceiling.  If he were to really take off, imagine playing KD and McDaniels at the same time.
