Still partial, most info is about lottery picks.

What stands out was Alexander's freakish athleticism. If he keeps improving his game, he may well become far more than a role-player.

Beasley and Rose both are shorter than advertised. I'm not surprised. Beasley may not have the ideal size to play PF, but I think it's good enough.

Mayo is an elite athlete; Lopez has good size and an awesome standing reach; Love outjumped Jordan (not bad for a supposed fat guy who can't jump).

About the guys who can fall to us:

DeVon Hardin stands 6’10.75 in shoes with a 7’3 wingspan, he had 20 reps on the bench and recorded a 32” max vertical leap. Nice measures. 

Richard Hendrix tested out very well. He is a hair under 6-9 in shoes, has a 7-3 wingspan, a 9-0 standing reach, and ran a 10.62 and 3.27. He jumped just 28 inches in the max vert. Not exactly an undersized PF, but close.
