Wouldnt be surprised if they take Clarke and Hachimura

Though wolves are rumored to like both of these forwards as well

I think of Draymond Green as the prototype for an undersized center/forward in today's game. At the 2012 combine he measured 6.7.5 with shoes and a 7.1.25 wingspan. We all know about his motor and athleticism.

Clarke measured 6.8.25 with a 6.8.25 wingspan. He's somewhat similar to Green regarding motor and athleticism. Different but similar. He certainly would be asked to play a similar role.

Basically, that's your comp. Can Clarke overcome a 3" wingspan difference to be effective? How close can he come to Green's status?

Also.....Semi Ojeleye 6.6.75 with a 6.9.75 wingspan. Do the Celtics really need Clarke when they already have Ojeleye?

You mean 5" wingspan difference.
