24. Hamidou Diallo, SG, Kentucky

Diallo has some major question marks offensively. He’s an inconsistent shooter who can’t do much else in the halfcourt setting right now. There’s some upside as a cutter, but he’s not much of an isolation threat and lacks in the playmaking department.

If his offensive polish doesn’t improve, Diallo will need to prove he can defend at the next level. He has plenty of tools — 6-foot-6 with a 7-foot wingspan — but his efforts have been variable on that side of the ball.

A freakish transition threat with plenty of hops, Diallo’s stock has always been tied to his athleticism. If the rest of his game doesn’t come around, though, he could drop down this board.
