Despite suffering a torn ACL earlier in the season, O.G. Anunoby has managed maintained his first round status. If not for the unfortunate injury, Anunoby could very well have been in the top 10 conversation. This is mainly down to his elite defensive ability already, as well as his insane reported 7-6 wingspan. If he can develop his three point he could be a scary all around package on the wing.

For a team that lacks perimeter defense Anunoby appears to be the best selection for them. The pricey purchase of Evan Turner looks to be a big mistake, there is uncertainty regarding the forward spots. Anunoby doesn’t need the ball to be effective but he will be able to hit a shot if open. Anunoby has also flashed potential of being a great slasher due to his elite size and athleticism.
