    Terrence Ross has to be the most slept on player right now. He’s a legit 6’7 198. He can shoot with range, mid range is good, can play defense, and his in game athleticsism is above average. It’s no reason he shouldn’t get better, unless his work ethic isn’t good — just don’t seeing that being the case. He should be able to contribute right away with his jump shooting ability and defense alone.

    To me, he has better long term potential than any other shooting guard in this draft due to his size. He’s a legit SG/SF. While the rest are combo guards — maybe expect Beal. Beal, due to his strength, skill, and athleticsism can be better.

    I want to know who others think will be a steal or a sleeper in this draft. This years draft has some serious depth and I believe lots of players will have long and productive NBA careers. 

    My only prerequisite is that the player be slated to be drafted outside the top 10. 

    The player that I think people underestimate/undervalue the most is Kendall Marshall. 

    I think that he has the potential to be a Jason Kidd type impact player. His unselfishness, size, and natural feel for the game make him a win-win choice.

    He is a crafty lefty who has a nice stroke and nifty unconventional moves that will allow him to score at the hoop.

    Kendall is a pure true PG who can distribute the ball, run a serious fast break, and makes his teammates better. He is 6-4 and does not rely on athleticism/speed, which will allow him to have a longer productive career. 

    I would like to see him get drafted by the Phoenix Suns, get one year of schooling from Steve Nash, and then run the squad for the fore seeable future.

    I am interested to hear others opinions.

    Thoughts?

    I think Jeffry Taylor could be a HUGE steal at the end of the first, beginning of the second round.  He is extremely athletic and a great defender, in the Sefolosha mold.  I think any GM would like a Sefolosha clone at that part of the draft…

     I got a feeling his more of a NBA player than a college guy. The guy just plays in way thats not to common, passing out of the post is a dangerous weapon.

    He’s the one guy I would love to get in the 2nd round.  Basically looks like a taller version of MarShon Brooks.

    A young, athletic prospect who’s very raw. But he’s a high character kid, wants to get better and I feel that in a few years he’ll show y’all he was a steal.

    Also watch out for Kim English, legit 6’6, a good athlete and has range.

    Jeffery Taylor doesn’t have anywhere near the wingspan of Thabo Sefolosha.  Taylor stands 6’7.25" in shoes, but has a very short 6’6.25" wingspan relative to his height.   He’ll have to play defense with his feet like Jared Dudley, but Taylor is more athletic.  His lateral quickness on D is second to none at his position.  Think if Taylor had a 7’0" wingspan he’d be a lottery pick.

    I got three:

    Tony Wroten Jr- will be the steal of the draft in my mind. This kid is going to go bananas in Vegas (if he gets drafted to a team with a Vegas summer league team)

    Robert Sacre- a 6’11 3/4 in shoes post player that is mobile & can defend pick n roll most defiante 2nd round steal.

    Scott Machado- slow, unathletic but he is a polished floor general in the Andre Miller mold, a basketball player.

     Darius Miller, not going to be a star,but a pefect glue guy off the bench who knows his role.

    I think will barton is going a good impact on a playoff team. I see him like a  better scoring kawhi leonard type of player, off the bench role pllayer.

    I also think quincy miller is going to be a huge payoff for some team. I know their are some questions about him with being so skinny and the need to bulk up and also his prior injury history as well, but the guy is a scorer. I also think he is going to be on a solid playoff team.

    If Tony Wroten drops past 25 he could be the biggest steal

    Doron Lamb if he lands with the Bulls or a championship contending team.. his game isnt built for rebuilding only winning

    Also being from VB I think Kyle O’Quinn would be underrated.. a lot better than people think
