I don't think this draft is all that great for PGs. There's Nick Smith, who could play as a lead guard, but I'm not sure how effective he'll be against NBA defenses. Cason Wallace is a point-of-attack guy who really defends and can make open shots, but he's not all that skilled offensively right now. The team that gets Amen Thompson could play him at the 1 or play through him at the wing, like a modern version of Grant Hill. But outside the top 5 or 6, I'm not really excited about the PGs, or at least I don't see franchise-level PGs.
The one exception might be Anthony Black. He's versatile enough that if it doesn't work out for him as a PG, he can play two other positions. He's worth a try. I just don't know if he's a guy who runs a team every possession.
