Re: Why the Suns will draft Shabazz Muhammad
I don't see how Bazz will sell more tickets than the next guy. Noel is #1 on my board but we're in good position for Bazz. I feel more comfortable taking him at #4 than I do at 1 or 2.

His name is more marketable and recognizable than an Oladipo. I'm not comfortable taking a guy with a major injury with a high draft pick. For that.reason i got Bennett first on my board and Shabazz the backup. I just hope the Cavs buy into all that Otto Porter hype and pass on Bennett if they pick first.

Re: Why the Suns will draft Shabazz Muhammad
Shabazz can play off the ball like Mclemore... Maybe not as well outside the arc...
But within 15-20 feet, Shabazz has many clips where he has shown he can catch and shoot...
Bonus is that he can score in traffic after a dribble in or two... He may get stripped in the NBA if he tries them but he has an off season to improve... Mclemore in the other hand is better in transition because he runs well and more explosive....
Point is.. Shabazz is "OK" .. But obviously Mclemore is more suited with Dragic as needing shooters and finishers next to him.

Via NBAdraft.net:
Weaknesses: Somewhat of a tweener as he is slightly undersized for a full time PF (though that's likely his future position) and slow defesnively to play the SF position ... The major concern for Bennett going into this season was his health. His prep career was marred with injuries as he was not able to finish out either his junior or senior seasons.
So who's next on your board?

Im surprised people are sleeping this hard on him. With Noel's injury i thought it was only obvious you take what could be the better prospect in Bennett. Damn, maybe Phoenix does got a shot at getting him.
