Good teams pick up good 3 and D long wing players in the middle of the draft. Lots of people who could be a good 3 and D but lots of questions.
Dunn (can he shoot)
Smith (can he guard perimeter)
Salaum ( may go top 10)

What do you have?

Tristan da Silva, Johnny Furphy, Cam Spencer, Kyshawn George, Terrence Shannon, Isaiah Crawford, David Jones, Malevy Leons, Jaedon LeDee, Enrique Freeman, Anton Watson and Keshad Johnson are all plausible candidates as guys who can shoot 3s and defend to varying extents. If you don't buy that his shot creation then you could even say Devin Carter or Reed Sheppard. Risacher is also a 3&D guy in my mind.

I mean Risacher is the definition of a 3&D prospect and he’s slated to go #1

I don't know if he's a perfect fit for this thread, I'm really intrigued by Harrison Ingram out of UNC. He feels like he's in the mold of guys like PJ Washington, Trey Lyles, Dante Cunningham. Not flashy, but they come in, do their job, and offer positional versatility at forward. He stands 6-5.25" and 233.6 lbs with a 7-0.25" wingspan (only an inch shorter height and two inches shorter wingspan than OG Anunoby). Big hands too. Good perimeter skills. He was a guard/forward in HS. Has the smarts, he played at Stanford his first two years.

Knecht is a better defender than people think by just looking at him.

Please expand on this because imo his technique and his defensive footwork are actually much worse than people realize.
