Are there any good pg's in the draft? #tank2016
Yeah, here's a quick breakdown.
Jamal Murray and Kris Dunn will be lottery picks and off the board.
The next tier, ones that could be available with the Jazz pick in the first are;
Demetrius Jackson, who's 6'1", quick with the ball and moving his feet(and hands) on defense, he's strong and damn good shooter from 3,not to be left open.He figures to be off the board somewhere near the lottery, a Jr. From Notre Dame, I think he's a better prospect than ND's PG last year Jerian Grant, who went #19th in 2015.
Isaiah Briscoe is a power guard in the mold of a Marcus Smart, he's battle ready and the cousin of Kyrie Irving. Maybe an inch shorter than Smart, and less bouncy, he's got more natural PG instincts, he's got a monstrous wingspan for someone his height so he's got great tools, combined with his strength and hands to be a menacing defender. He can also play off the ball, and is a very effective slasher. He also will be able to function as strictly a floor general if need be. His shots far from broken but he's the worst shooter out of the 4 names in bold.
Wade Baldwin IV is a realtively late bloomer who's blowing up in his Sophomore year, he's got at least a 6'10" wingspan at 6'2" or 6'3", great hands, he appears to be a vocal floor leader, his 3pt shooting is something that at this point looks vastly improved, he's over 50%, wasn't a top-100 recruit, he's got some stop and start moves. Good player.
Melo Trimble is looking like a solid first round pick too. He's strong and balanced with a quick first step, he can shoot, kinda similar to Baldwin tbh, doesn't have long arms though, doesn't seem to dunk, he's good shooter and shot a ton of FT's at a really high rate as a freshman, shows flashes of great vision.
Then there's more than a few on the radar for fringe 1st round/priority 2nd round picks; 6'6" Tyrone Wallace, 6'6" Tim Quarterman, 6'2" Marcus Paige, 6'2" Monte Morris, 5'9" Tyler Ulis, 6'5" George Lucas, 6'2" Isaiah Taylor, 6'3" Gary Payton II.
