Underrated sources for Steals?

With steals obviously guys would be on Kawhi, Rubio, etc. already but who are some probable sources of this that very few think about? Any rookies that were good with steals in college? Because 9 times out of 10 that usually translates to the pros.

Rondae will be up there. Gary Harris too. Solomon Hill. Larry Nance Jr. Clint Capela (FT sucks though.) Tony Allen tends to be undrafted a lot.

Otto Porter/Kentavious Caldwell-Pope will probably be gone early. But they're good sources.

Patrick McCaw was a good defender in college but I am not sure how he'd get the playing time in GSW.

Norman Powell if you can get him late

He's barely averaging a steal, what makes you say this? Is he scheduled to get the lion's share of SF minutes?

I could see him getting 26-29 minutes per game towards the latter part of the season (maybe earlier) averaging 1+ steal, 1 + 3pm...potential option as an end of roster kind of player.

Chris McCullough - dude averaged 1.7stl (and 2.0blk) a game in College and averaged 1.2stl a game in only 15min a game last season.

Per-36 steals he was 2.8! Only 24 games mind you, but the Nets will play him into a bigger role and Trevor Booker and old man Scola have shown they're not exactly reliable starters at PF.

Justin Holiday if he ever seens minutes in NY could be a good source of steals.

Jusuf Nurkic is surprisingly good at steals too for a big guy.

Willie Cauley-Stein as well.

Rondae is the big late-round steal target this year. I think he's going to be a top-50 player in punt points.

I like KCP's price right now as well. I've been grabbing him pretty consistently in the later rounds in mocks for his steals and threes.
