1) Sacramento - Adalberto Navarro SG 6'6'' 210 19 B B- C+ C- C A
The Spanish Sensation! This kid looks like the real deal and although he stands to really improve his defense, he could be an absolute stud.
2) Chicago - Zack Swanson PF 6'9'' 241 20 A- C+ C C+ C+ A
It would be really tough for the Bulls to pass on Swanson. He could even be the top overall pick with his insane ratings. He is strong in every area, has good size and potentially solid upside.
3) Dallas - Iarere Ballantyne SG 6'5'' 200 18 B B- C C C- A
At age 18 with his sort of raw offensive abilities, he will be very hard to pass up. Ballantyne looks like a true star in the making and with the 1 inch increase to 6'6", he will be a legit swingman.
4) Portland - Jared McGahee SG 6'4'' 220 20 B+ C+ C C+ C- A
With the Blazers opting for St. Cloud over Duck Young-Bak, McGahee will bring them shades of the player that they opted not to take. McGahee is built tough and looks like a legitimate future star. I wouldn't be shocked to see him go higher than here.
5) Golden State - Bishop Daniels PG 6'3'' 198 21 C C+ B- A- C- A
Looks like a Gary Payton clone, which would be perfect for the Warriors weakest position. A very intriguing prospect.
6) Utah - Carlito Cancun PG 6'5'' 205 20 C+ C+ C+ C+ C+ A
Cancun could go higher than 6 with his upside.
7) Lakers - Sediq King SF 6'6'' 228 20 B C B- C C+ A
Sediq the Freak will be a solid fit for the Lakers if they can somehow transition him into a power forward.
8) Grizzlies - Flavijus Stankevicius C 7'2'' 255 21 B- D+ C+ C+ C A
JB's first draft pick as the Grizzlies GM after the hard cap penalty and they need to make a big splash here. They need help everywhere. Flav is the best player on the board.
9) Boston - Brett Jenkins SF 6'8'' 203 21 B- C B- C B- A
Jenkins fills the Celtics biggest position of need and also happens to be the best player available.
10) Cleveland - Storm Warren C 6'11'' 230 22 C B+ D+ B+ B- B
The Cavs could use a nice big up front and Warren's unique skills make him the pick here over Frank McPherson.
11) Toronto - Ulysses Limon SF 6'8'' 220 21 B- C- C A B B
Limon is too intriguing to pass up at 11. Sven Andersson went higher two years ago and the two have a lot in common.
12) Portland - Frank McPhereson C 7'2'' 238 21 B- D C- B- B- A
The Magic could use a good center and McPhereson is the best on the board.
13) Cleveland - Cody Patrick SF 6'10'' 249 22 B- B+ C C+ D+ A
The Cavs are shocked to find Cody Patrick still on the board at 13. His age and rebounding may cause this intriguing prospect to drop.
14) San Antonio - Bobo Bareagua SF 6'2'' 260 19 B C- B B- B C
The Spurs take a calculated risk on the chubby Bareagua who has a really great array of skills.
