NBA Draft 2019: Big Board 3.0

A natural scorer, Romeo Langford continues to flash his special talent as Indiana’s go-to scorer. His three-point percentage (25.7) isn’t indicative of his shooting prowess, so expect some positive regression as the season progresses.

While not the most explosive athlete, Langford uses quick hesitations and smooth handles to create angles, generate space and get off shots. His step-back, combined with a compact release, makes defending him in isolation a challenge.

Growth as a defender and playmaker would cement Langford’s stock, but the upside is clear. He’s one of the most gifted scorers in college basketball, displaying innate talent that’s hard to pass up on. He’s firmly in the top-five discussion.
