NBA Draft 2019: Big Board 3.0

The Wildcats once again have several NBA prospects, but Keldon Johnson slots well above the rest. A physical 6-foot-6 wing, Johnson plays both ends of the floor and checks several boxes for NBA teams.

With a solid frame and 6-foot-9 wingspan, Johnson has the tools to defend at least three positions. Add in an improving three-point shot and high basketball I.Q., and it’s easy to lock him into the lottery discussion at this point.

Johnson has fluid mechanics when spotting up, which bodes well moving forward. He still does most of his damage as a slasher, though, aggressively charging the lane and finishing with a variety of touch shots. He’s not an elite athlete, but he embraces contact and uses his length to finish in traffic.
