reddish's problem is more than just motor. he has far better motor on defense than rj.

it's the lack of athleticism and ability to make quick decisions on his drives. dude's handle is also bad.

RJ is weird defensively. Beyond being too upright, it's like he sticks with the play just fine, but gives up on the first obstacle.

Nothing actually removes him from staying on ball, he just gives up immediately.

I can see the Lakers taking Cam, just to use the same reasoning as us taking RJ when it comes to AD trade talks.
Say you can have Cam and Zion together to comfort each other as rookies.

2019 NBA Draft's Best-Kept Secrets
JONATHAN WASSERMAN
MAY 23, 2019


NBA teams will enter their war rooms with sleepers to watch relative to where they're drafting.

I pegged the best-kept secrets to consider in each tier, including one who could be left over and available after all 60 picks.

Scouting departments are all well aware of the following five prospects. These are just the potential value picks or steals who deserve to be considered earlier than what the consensus projections forecast.


They have Darius Bazley in here who we were just talking about.

If we're getting KD, we don't need that many rookies.

Plus, that reduces our cap.
