Kulboka is another draft-and-stash guy. Standing around 6-foot-11, he’s a fluid scorer off the dribble who already shoots the ball at a high level. The biggest thing for him will be adding muscle, as he’s entirely too thin for the NBA game right now.

Brown struggled during his sophomore season, partially due to injury. He’s an explosive athlete with a strong frame and long arms, making him one of the more intriguing perimeter defenders in the draft. He can also attack the lane with an explosive first step and hit open threes.

Thomas is an elite perimeter stopper on the defensive end, using his 6-foot-11 wingspan to deny passing angles and irritate opposing ball handlers. He’s also a solid role player offensively, making smart passes and knocking down spot-up jumpers.

Milton is another comboguard who should find success on both ends. He has some impressive physical tools, while his shooting and feel in the pick-and-roll are promising traits. If he can clean up his handles, there is legitimate point guard upside.

Holiday shoots the ball at a high level, allowing him to play with an without the rock. He’s also a crafty playmaker in the pick-and-roll, using his slick handles and pull-up threat to beat opposing defenses. He puts in solid effort on the defensive end.
