    While there is no formula to see how an NBA prospect will succeed in the NBA, especially in year one, there are two indicators of potential success; these are team fit and playing time.  Assuming that the following 2016 draft prospects check both of those boxes, here are my comparisons between the last two draft classes.

    Jaylen Brown: Justice Winslow

    Dragan Bender: Frank Kaminsky

    Jamal Murray: Devin Booker

    Kris Dunn: Emmanuel Mudiay

    Marquese Chriss: Myles Turner

    Skal Labissiere: Trey Lyles

    Deyonta Davis: Larry Nance Jr

    Demetrius Jackson: Terry Rozier

    Wade Baldwin: Cameron Payne

    Domantas Sabonis: Bobby Portis

    Malachi Richardson: Rashard Vaughn

    Sheldon Mcclellan: Josh Richardson

     

    Mind you, these comparisons are based on how I feel that each 2016 prospect will perform in their first year in the league (similar stat production), not a direct comparison on their skill level or how I feel they will turn out compared to the 2015 draft class (e.g. Dragan Bender is younger, more agile, and more athletic than Frank Kaminsky).

    Do you guys have any comparisons between the two draft classes?

    Pretty accurate except i dont see Chriss producoing and showing clear signs of all star potential as soon as Turner.
