There are so many players down below 20 that could be really really good. And while we just saying a lot of these guys just behind 20 are speculative like Looney Turner Booker Oubre(guys who were ranked top 10 in the nation prior to coming to school yet had somewhat average first years ion the court)
Then there is value if you can find it and have the picks to make them. There are guys like Mickey Wood Tokoto Fuzaro Joe Young Christmas Norman Powell Rozier Dez Wells Qualls if in the right circumstance *could* be better than guys taken very VERY high in this draft. I mean you could legitimately win this draft with picks 31 and 33. The athletic talent in rd 2 is the best Ive ever seen. And some of these guys will be really good not just role players.
In the NBA is Norman Powell going to be a Monta Ellis with a stronger body who also happens to play great D ? And hes #54 rank on the mocks? Hes got the same straight line at the rim drive as Monta with the great body. He could easily be a great 2 way NBA player. More room in the NBA for a guy like him.
So it will be interesting and there will be teams who really score big.
i love Norman Powell - hes another sleeper that reminds me of Affalo

There are like 7-8(and maybe a record number making the NBA) guy in rd 2 who are going to have a chance to be real good NBA players that will just come out of the wood works and people will be like huh? Ive thought this for 3 months+ some people maybe not the same opinion but this is the best 2nd round of a draft that I ever remember and not even close. There are going to be some Jimmy Butler Cartlos Boozer Michael Redd pulls from rd 2 this year---now can a team find one. I would say its NOT a good year to buy a pick and look for raw players--Id steer very clear of this. You have a bunch of very athletic skilled players who have good history behind them.
