I know there has been a lot of decrepency in how we view Marv and Law's potential, and their ability to develop beyond average players. Does anyone know about any references that are available for having analyzed the success rate of nba draft picks? It would be nice to know how much of a caluculated risk we are taking by committing to the development of a recently drafted player. "Success" could be deteremined by statistical production, attaining a certain amount of playing time, team producation when the player in on the floor, etc., but I would steer clear of rating success according to salary. Although it would be nice just to have that info for draft picks in general, breaking down the success rate by draft position (selected in top 5, or between 5 and 10, etc.) or by the position the player plays (PG's v/s C's) would be very interesting. Does anyone know of any such resources?

idk but i think Law will atleast turn into a Derrick Fisher type player.

A good website is basketball-reference.com. It has all the standard stats, per minute stats, and the advanced stuff like PER and the things that go into that (rebound rate, assist rate, etc.).

From there I usually just try and think of a player from the past with similar skills/athleticism/experience and then see how they graded out over their career. I like doing that with players I know because I don't believe in evaluating strictly on numbers.
