    Kaminsky is not an NBA center.  He’s a power forward.  He can’t defend or rebound.

       i think he can play PF at the next level,  but i disagree with the latter part. unless you’re projecting out his physical attributes and saying that they won’t translate, he’s rebounding and defending well at the college level. he’s avging 11 boards per 34 pace adjusted and he actually defends in space very well, which is a very important attribute to have in today’s ice heavy defensive schemes.

    Sviatoslav and Dragan Bender won’t be able to declare for the 2015 draft, as you have to be 19 during the year in which you are first allowed to declare. Also I would say that Stanley Johnson is more a of SF than a SG.

      Not sure why you got negged for that. Despite being lanky and having a SF build Looney definitly plays like a PF. He’s really going to need to improve his handle and face up game if he wants to play SF at the next level but his energy/length and effort on the glass should allow him to play at 4. I really don’t get the Kevin Durant comparisons I always see on him

        I believe he is closer to Brandan Wright. Many will disagree because he’s considered bust material, but the skill-set amongst the two players are pretty comparable, especially coming out of HS heading into their Freshmen year’s.

     Rashad Vaghn is a Nick Young chucker in no way better than Caris Levert.

    Andrew Harrison above D’angelo Russell? 

    And no, Sviat is not the best SG prospect.

      Mykhailiuk is 17, has been scoring in double digits, and starts for Kansas……….and you don’t think he’s the best SG prospect????

    The skills are there yes and technically he might be one of the best sf/sg prospects but he isn’t NBA ready if that’s how this list is going
