NBA Comparison: Justin Holiday Strengths: Dangerous scoring wing who can score from every level of the defense … An explosive athlete with a near 40 inch vertical leap, McClellan finishes above the rim with consistency … McClellan is a smooth, creative finisher, who can get to the rim with either his explosiveness or his finesse, depending on what the situation requires … McClellan is also a very good outside shooter, connecting on 41% from 3 this season …

NBA Comparison: Justin Reed Strengths: Dawson, when on his game, is a physical presence at the 4 who crashes the boards hard, defends several positions well, and provides steady leadership on the floor…Great rebounder, particularly on the offensive glass. Pursues misses tenaciously, boxes out well with his muscular frame, and gets a lot of putback baskets for himself…Dawson is a versatile defender, who, in college, could guard three or four positions, and while he may be more limited defensively in the pros, his strength and solid length (6’11" wingspan) allow
Andrew Wiggins
NBA Comparison: Vince Carter/Rudy Gay Strengths: Off the charts run/jump athleticism … Lateral quickness and length also gives him great potential as a perimeter defender, along with versatility to guard both wing positions efficiently … Incredibly dangerous in transition opportunities, long strider with a quick first step, did a great job of scoring or getting fouled when getting out in transition … Shooting mechanics have improved greatly, with quickness enough to get his shot off under tight defense … Got to the FT stripe at a good r
