    Parker now is ready to be productive next season

    Wiggins will need a year to adjust is body to Nba

    Embiid, like Wiggins, but maybe two years … and i.m.o. he”ll be a very good player.

     Truthfully, I think all-three could be considered NBA ready.

    I feel Jabari will come into the league and be a good scorer, however, he’ll improve his defense throughout the years.

    Wiggins should come in and be a good defensive player right away, and his athleticism will allow him to get out on the run and score transition buckets.

    Embiid already has a better back-to-the-basket game than a lot of the centers in the league. He’ll also come in right away and block shots.

    Now, I don’t think any of the these guys will be all-stars their rookie years, but they all have the potential to be in the future. They all have things they need to improve on, but I feel like all three can come in and contribute to a team right away. So, if by NBA ready you mean contributing to a team’s success, I think they’re all ready, and you can’t really go wrong with any of them.

     What I was trying to say is that this whole "Parker is more NBA ready than Wiggins" thing is overblown.  Everyone said coming in to the season that Parker is such a much better scorer than Wiggins, yet only averaged 2 more points per game than Wiggins, and Wiggins was on a team with more offensive power.  Not to mention in the 2nd half of the season Wiggins shot a better shooting percentage than Parker.

    I think Wiggins is just as NBA ready as Parker due to his athleticism and defense.  I think Wiggins will have a better rookie season and ultimately, a better career.

    Parker will come closest to fulfilling his potential in his rookie year.

    Wiggins and Embiid will both be forces defensively right away.  Wiggins will probably play a 3&D role but I’d expect his shot to be inconsistant.  Embiid will be limited by foul trouble.

    As having the complete skill-set required to be a star in the league, then Parker is the most NBA-ready.

     Honestly each guy is going to need to adjust, none of them are going to come in and lead their teams in scoring and take them to contenders over night. Depends on fit and where they go too. I know your not taking shots at Parker like wiggins and embiid didn’t have poor games in crucial moments last CBB season. It’s a process and while one guy may lead the other two in scoring or whatever statistics their rookie season, their overall impact on their respective teams and on the game itself may be different. I wouldn’t even attempt to say one is more nba ready before they get drafted.

    Lets be honest, Embiid will struggle with fouling early in his career, but his offense is already better than 3/4 the centers in the NBA. His shot blocking ability is also better than 3/4 the centers. Hes huge and plays with a nasty streak. He also overshadowed Wiggins at Kansas for a good stretch, and arguably improved more over the season than any other player in the draft. He measured 7’1 and 265 lbs and is arguably more athletic than almost every center in the league minus acouple.
