    Sleepers are hard to find. The best player with NBA potential I saw play the year before last was Georgetown's Chris Wright. He didn't even play in the league last year. He was Russell Westbrook 2.0. This year I think Moulton from Mississippi State will be really good and the wing at NC state. Did he declare for the draft?

    I like Will Barton

    not really a sleeper anymore but Dion Waiters will be a premier player

    Royce White will fall too far

    Drummond will be huge bust

    I like Jae Crowder too

    I think Lamb is too soft for the NBA, he will camp out on the 3 point line. He doesn't have the killer instinct to make it in the NBA like the man in my avatar.

    in the nba after pick 10 is a sleeper IMO. u got some decent 2nd round guys like arenas and nick van exel, but thats like hitting the powerball.

    I agree, wasting a top 3 pick on a shooter. That's all he's ever been so far.

    I am a fan of Ross' game. But he wasn't even the best player on his team in Washington, and the guy who was isn't even projected to go first rd.

    Can Ross be successful? Yes. He has the tools. His success depends solely on what type of situation he lands in, not in on how much he is going to overpower his way into stardom by his ability.

    Ross is the type of guy who won't have jaw-dropping stats in college, but his game translates extremely well to the NBA. He is everything you want in an NBA SG. He has size and length to guard SG's and SF's, he has unlimited range on his jumpshot, and he can finish near the basket. He needs to work on his shot selection. He settled for far too many jump shots in college and didn't take the ball to the basket enough. I don't think he'll ever be a 18ppg type of guy, but I think he is a very safe pick. I see him being a very good player in the NBA for the next 8-10 years. Very similar to JR Smith, but hopefully more disciplined.

    Biggest risk/reward guy is Tony Wroten. I could see him being out of the NBA in 3 years, or an all-star in 3 years. He is a 6'5 PG who has great passing skills, and can get to the basket at will. Only problem is he can't shoot a jumpshot to save his life, and he has poor decision making skills. Would love to see a team like the Lakers take a chance on him.

    I like both of them as well. Tu Holloway is fearless, the only problem with him is that I'm not sure how well he will fit in an NBA system where he isn't the best player. At Xavier he would shoot 20+ times a game and have the ball in his hands every possession.

    Cunningham has a chance to be a very good player. Great defender, and great athletic ability. Only problem is can he learn the PG position. Reminds me a lot of Russell Westbrook, when Westbrook came out of college. If Cunningham can't learn the PG position, he won't have a future in the NBA.

    I really like Cunningham's game. If it wasn't for Nicholson's ability, and his being overlooked, my vote would be for Jared every single day.

    Funny seeing people voting for guys out of the lowly Pac-12.
