Jonathan Isaac - SF/PF - 6'11" - Florida State
I'll take the 6'11" freak "wing" who can shoot 3s, switch all 5 positions, and make defensive plays. This is who I want to slip to 11 and who I'd target if we try to move up.

I look at that frame and think, "This kid is going to get injured before New Year's." Plus, he looks gawky, more like a high school player.

Re: Jonathan Isaac - SF/PF - 6'11" - Florida State
He's a boom or bust guy for sure...is he Durant or Anthony Randolph? I will say that the few games I watched him play this year his length absolutely bothered the other team...will that translate to the NBA, who knows, but hes got length for days and seems to have pretty decent instincts. I just dont see him falling to us...too much upside.

I don't see Isaac as boom or bust at all. He seems like one of the higher floor prospects in the draft. The knock on him is that his ceiling might be super role player. I don't think there is a lot of reason to worry about his strength. He is one of the best defensive rebounders in the draft class. He gets blocks and steals and has good instincts. Its hard to imagine him not being an impact defender at the next level. The question is whether or not he can be anything more than a spot up shooter and cutter on offense.

I saw a Clifford Robinson comparison thrown out on the draft board. That would be a nice ceiling.

Love him but he will be long gone.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

If we traded up with Minnesota and Monk was gone I'd love to take Isaac.

Even if both players were there I'm trading up for Isaac before Monk.
EDIT: fixing auto correct

I think Isaac, Markkanen, and Monk, are the three guys that could potentially justify moving up. My heart wants Monk the most, but my head tells me he has the most bust potential of the group. Isaac is the most natural fit right away because the log jam at PF/C would necessitate another deal if we wanted Markkanen to ever see the floor, so I'd lean towards Isaac, but its possible Markkanen might actually be the best prospect of the three.

This dude is the future. Too bad Milwaukee didn't have a lotto pic. Would have been cool to see him, Giannis and Middleton all over the place.
