Let's get excited! Woo!
Okay, so we won't get Embiid, Wiggins, or Parker, and we probably won't get Exum.
But one of the most physically gifted and youngest players in this draft could very well be there for us at #6!

His hands are absolutely gigantic. Remember how Kawhi Leonard was a bit of an unheralded pick on draft day, and he's turned out to be a really nice young player? Part of that is the things he's able to do because of his large hands. Vonleh could be similar.
He may only be 6'9'' or so, but he's got the length and reach to play center once he puts on some weight. He's raw on both ends, but he's shown the ability to be a rim protector, and he also has a nice jumpshot. We could be looking at a Chris Bosh type of big man only with better defensive ability.
Think big! Think Vonleh!
