21. Nickeil Alexander-Walker, PG/SG, Virginia Tech
Much like Melton, Alexander-Walker is a talented comboguard with some obvious appeal on both ends. He might end up returning to school for another year, but shoulder get the attention of scouts if he decides to leave this summer.
At 6-foot-5 with a 6-foot-9 wingspan, it’s not hard to see where his potential lies defensively. He already has some pretty good instincts, allowing him to get into passing lanes and get the offense moving in the other direction.
Offensively, Alexander-Walker could do well alongside another capable ball handler. He has a projectable stroke on spot-ups, while his long strides help him get to the rim in pick-and-rolls. He shows some nice flashes as a passer, but he’s not playing much of a point guard role at this point.
