We need Naji Marshall from Xavier 

Post#1 » by GQ Hot Dog » Sun Mar 22, 2020 1:10 am

This kid is an NBA player through and through. Read the scouting report but check out the video of his defense, particularly the possession starting at 1:07.

Also, his partner at Xavier, Paul Scruggs is a tough 6'4 200lb. guard with a 6'11 wingspan that shot 37% from 3 on 4 attempts a game for the last two seasons. I'd give him an undrafted FA deal or maybe take him late in the 2nd.

Possibly my favorite Scrubb ever, would be the first JUCO player to be drafted in 15 years I think?

This guy should definitely be drafte. For one of our 2nd rd picks seems like a good pick. 6’7”, 7’ wingspan who can be an elite defender.

He kind of reminds me of Will Barton on offense, not as bouncy seems like quicker feet defensively.
