The Colorado homer in me is going for Burks. Though even if I weren't I still think I'd go for the better offensive prospect. I'd be happy with Singleton at that pick too though.
 
I would rather have a good defender at the 3, that can shoot the 3 than a slicing 2 whose shooting is questionable.
I do like both players though, but I would feel better about Burks if he had a better shot.

I think he is considered to be a pretty good mid range shooter, if that matters to you at all.
 
And I wouldn't be so quick to call Singleton a better 3pt shooter than Burks. If you look at their career averages from 3, they are pretty similar.
 
Burks big drop in % could be attributed to higher usage rate ala Hayward's sophomore numbers.
 
I just think Burks will learn to shoot well enough, he's a gifted athlete and he probably has a slightly better head on his shoulders. That said, I think Singleton will probably be an elite defender, the kind who could guard Durant.
