Most likely to be a superstar:
1. Wiggins - even though he didnt play up to the hype of his fresh season he is the best HS prospect since James. He has potnetial to be McGrady and them some.
2. Embiid - reminds of Hakeem the dream, sans injury concerns.
3. Vonleah - this guys intagables are off the map.. long, puts ball on floor, can shoot the 3.. I think he will be a better version of Bosh in the long run.

Can contribute day one and on..
1. Jabari Parker - the more I watch him the more I see PP, not super athletic but clutch.
2. Marcus Smart - plays both ends of the floor, great toughness
3.Julius Randle - Even though he is a defensive liability (Al Jeff) he is a rebounding machine and effective in the paint.
3.1 Aaron Gordon - this guy is Blake all over again.

Biggest Risk.
1. Embiid - injuries just keep adding up
2.Exum - tweener that may lack NBA toughness
3. Hood - even though hes not a top 8 he used to disappear in big college games.

Best Middle round prospect
1. Elfrid Payton - he could jump up but this guy plays like Rondo.. both ends of the floor, just played at a smaller school.
2. Dario Saric - big upside just have to wait 2 years
3. Kyle Anderson - guy has more potential than his tape.. needs good coaching and attitude adjustment.

Safest pick
1. Parker - a PP clone can easily average 18ppg
2. McDermott - outplayed everyone at college level. can play back to rim plus best shot in the draft. lacks atheticism but will be around for awhile.
3.Smart - same point I made before.
