Adalberto Navarro (leaning towards 2016 draft) 6'6 210 SG 19 years old Projected Ratings: B B C+ C- C A
Overview: This Spanish scoring sensation averaged 37 points per game in Spain's basketball league, the most ever by a player at just 19 years of age. However, he will likely enter the league has one of the worst defensive players the league has ever seen as well. Navarro wants to come to the pros in 2015, but it is likely he waits a year because his agent wants him to be picked top 3 overall, which won't happen in the 2015 draft class.
Strengths: An incredible scorer, Navarro can put up 30+ on any given night. He has a knack for hitting the big shot, and can really light it up from downtown. Navarro also has a ridiculous cross-over that gives him room on the outside and enables him to take the ball to the rim at will. He has a perfect build for a two guard and is a solid athlete. Passing is also an underrated characteristic of his game.
Weaknesses: Horrendous defender. He has the build and the athleticism but has absolutely zero desire. Perimeter defense is non-existent, as his opponents get to the bucket at will. He has poor anticipation for steals, and a bad help defender in general. Moderately turnover prone.
Where will he go?: Wherever he goes, Navarro will be a risky pick. Right now he can put up 20 for any team in the league, but he's almost unplayable at the moment with his defense. If he scores 25, his opponent will scorer 40. Still, his offense is so good that he'll likely be a top 3-5 pick.

This is a guy people are going to tank for? Remind me not to rebuild until we get real draft classes again.

I've gotten the impression that the new drafts look better than the old drafts from most people.
I'm not a huge fan of Navarro personally, i hate players who can't play D
