2014 Top 10
As far as NBA prospects go I'd have it:
1. Karl Towns Jr
2. Jahlil Okafor
3. Emmanuel Mudiay
4. Tyus Jones
5. Justise Winslow
6. Cliff Alexander
7. Malik Pope
8. Stanley Johnson
9. Chris McCullough
10. D'Angelo Russell
extending it out to top 15 I'd probably go:
11. Theo Pinson
12. Rashad Vaughn
13. Kevon Looney
14.Trey Lyles
15. Jaquan Lyle
A couple of guys who I think will climb higher going into their senior yr are:
Ahmed Hill
Shelton Mitchell
Keita Bates-Diop
Isaac Copeland
It's still not a great class, but there are some gems. Ahmed Hill particular, I think he's got top 10 in the class potential.
I like both. I think Pinson's athleticism would give him the nod for me over Vaughn. Stanley Johnson's not quite as skilled as Vaughn, but he does have skill and he's bigger, stronger, faster and more athletic than Vaughn.
I like Russell over Vaughn as well because I think he has legit PG potential. Russell looks like he's still growing too.
Joel Berry's good, I'd have him just outside of my top 15. He could be another Trey Burke, but he'll have the same hurdles to overcome that Trey has.
