Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. G. Tennessee. player. Jaden Springer. 12. 24

Chicago Bulls

It might seem redundant for the Chicago Bulls to select another guard with Zach Lavine and Coby White already on the roster but Jaden Springer is a prospect who they might consider.

Springer is a streaky shooter who can put the ball on the floor and seek out his own shot. His upside as a creator balances out the potential risk of losing Lavine in free agency or via trade in the near future.

Pick Analysis. G. Michigan. Franz Wagner. 13. Scouting Report. player. 211

Memphis Grizzlies

With Jaren Jackson and Ja Morant pushing this Memphis Grizzlies team to the brink of reaching the playoffs each season, they will have to land a talented prospect at the back end of the lottery. Franz Wagner is a good player to target as his two years with Michigan provide enough of a sample size to know what you’re getting into.

Wagner is a reliable 3-point shooter and defender. He can boost the Grizzlies’ bench and provide additional scoring as a backup guard. Not to mention, his 6’9″ frame gives some height to the Grizzlies’ backcourt.

14. player. Scouting Report. F. Gonzaga. Corey Kispert. 41. Pick Analysis

Golden State Warriors

Corey Kispert is exactly what the Golden State Warriors need in this draft. A senior at Gonzaga (and also a teammate of the Warriors’ fifth pick in this mock), Kispert is an experienced prospect with a polished game that can help the Dubs compete right away.

Kispert is averaging a team-high 19.2 points on a scorching hot 44.4 percent clip from the 3-point line. It doesn’t get much more simple than slotting him into the rotation and allowing him to rain down 3-pointers whenever the Dubs need a booster shot of offense.
