Johnson actually has an all-around game -- Winslow the few times I've seen him has shown very little skill.

Winslow is a stud.

Read/watch draft express scouting video on Winslow -- basically supports what I said.
Weaknesses
Perimeter shooting - very limited range
Creating offense - very limited ability to create 1 vs 1
Upside

Man I dont need to watch a draft express scouting video to form my own judgement of a player. I actually watch the games. Kid is one of the reasons why Duke is such a good team. His energy, athleticism, and talent will not be overlooked and he will make a name for himself as the year goes on I am 100% sure of that.
He's already better than Iman Shumpert.
But if it came down to Winslow and Stanimal Johnson, then idk...that is a difficult decision to make. Johnson is real.

Draft Express has him rated at #5 or #6 so he's obviously a physical specimen and has talent -- my point is -- I don't see any true NBA offensive skills. I will have to take a better look at Winslow.
Shump is a stiff in my opinion -- lets hope both these guys are better than Shump but Shump is a perfect example of what happens when you bring limited offensive game to the pro's -- particularly at the SG position.

Delon Wright
Jerian Grant
I love both of these guys--these guys would change the complete dynamic of our backcourt for a decade.
This could be a transformational draft
