TJ Leaf was another player who wasn’t on the NBA radar coming into the season, he was projected to be a multi-year player for the UCLA Bruins. But due to the impact of Lonzo Ball, Leaf was able to get enough time to shine and he didn’t disappoint. Leaf’s ability to knock down a three point shot (46.6 percent) is unparalleled.
Will Leaf be able to continue tearing it up from deep without a pass-first? If Damian Lillard finds him open he will knock it down, but how often does Dame drive with intentions of kicking out to the open man?
With three first round picks, the Trail Blazers could have a killer draft that could keep them in playoff contention for years to come.
