I'd go Prince or Zizic as a draft-n-stash, we do seems to have good luck with Euro bigs !!

With getting Ellenson at 15, and Dunn at 7. SG is the most glaring issue that we are going to have to address in this draft. I'm taking Malachi Richardson with this pick.

Based on what we took, I'll agree with tstrick33 and say "shooting" --- Beasley

I'd like to take either Deandre Bembry or Malachi Richardson with this pick. Richardson probably makes the most sense due to need, but I like Bembry so much that I would probably take him first.

At which draft pick is he a steal? Most project him as late second or not being drafted. It's hard to see how that's a steal at any draft pick. I can see drafting him with a second round pick, say #53 and totally expecting him to stay in Europe for a few years. DraftExpress lists his weaknesses and the first couple really bother me:

-Conditioning is average. Struggles to play more than 5-6 minutes consecutively
-Needs to continue to tone frame
-Intensity level often leaves something to be desired
-Jogs up and down the court. Doesn't always get back on defense
-Offensive skill-level still a work in progress. Footwork is average. Lacks patience with back to the basket. Not aggressive or skilled enough to assert his will on opponents. Gets pushed around
-Lacks a degree of toughness

I agree but we have so many other needs that back-up PG seems unimportant.

Return to Denver Nuggets
