1. Sacramento Kings - Russell Westbrook
Russell Westbrook SF 6'3'' 200 20 B+ C B+ C B+ A
PG eligible. Elite quickness and jumping. Solid strength and passing. Mediocare handles, inside scoring and jumpshot.
180 Russell Westbrook SF 22 6'3'' 200 B B A- C+ B+ B
180 Russell Westbrook SF 82 35.1 21.1 7.9 9.3 1.6 0.2 3.9 .459 .742 .392
At the draft day i already thought that Westbrook should not have been selected first overall, I actually thought that CC was playing mind games putting Derrick Rose as the second best player on the boards, nonetheless, Russell Westbrook should never play Point Guard of a team trying to win, at shooting guard like he played on his rookie season might be the way. Good to see his outside developing a bit but he's flawed right now and I stand with my draft day stand that Derrick Rose was easily the first pick of that draft.

2. Golden State Warriors - Derrick Rose
Derrick Rose PG 6'3'' 200 20 A- C C C+ C A
Elite jumping. Good quickness and inside scoring. Solid jumpshot, perimeter defense and strength.
152 Derrick Rose PG 22 6'3'' 200 A- B B+ B+ C+ A
152 Derrick Rose PG 82 35.7 23.2 6.3 9.0 1.3 0.2 2.8 .458 .850 .330
CC gets Derrick Rose, someone he said at the draft day as the second best player in the draft, obviously he was not serious there as I firmly believe that Derrick Rose was who would have been picked if he snag number 1 instead, C+ rebounding as a PG is nice, which is the maximum, still have room for improvement on his outside shot, but he looks like a future superstar in the league with his current ratings.

3. Indiana Pacers - Brook Lopez
Brook Lopez C 7'0'' 282 19 B- B- C B C A
Good strength, blocks and jumpshot. Solid post defense. Mediocre inside scoring.
225 Brook Lopez C 22 7'0'' 282 B B- C- A- C+ B
225 Brook Lopez C 82 32.7 11.7 8.1 1.5 0.9 1.3 1.3 .442 .745 .299
I had more hopes for him when was picked, still has RC left but right now he still look like a serviceable big, but I actually thought he would be a star in the league but with his rebounding limitation, and a so-so blocking so far, he should still improve if his Rebounding could go to B or B+ which is not that crazy with the Center TCs he'll be getting, he would be a rookie max big.

4. Minnesota Timberwolves - Kevin Love
Kevin Love PF 6'8'' 251 20 C B+ C+ C B+ A
Elite offensive rebounding. Good jumpshot and strength. Solid 3 point shot.
186 Kevin Love PF 22 6'8'' 251 C+ A- C C B+ A
186 Kevin Love PF 81 30.9 18.1 8.7 3.2 0.5 0.3 1.5 .462 .802 .416
Just like Lopez I expected more off him, right now he's not the Kevin Love the league has envisioned but since Tyga picked him, he was obviously not fully camped, he was then traded for Al Jeff and Monta Ellis, and their GM definitely have high hopes for him, not turning into a star yet is not a concern like Lopez as potential was the one that was picked off him and not his based ratings like Lopez, nonetheless, the last 2 picks are not yet living up to their hype.
5. Phoenix Suns (from Bulls & Magic) - Deandre Jordan
DeAndre Jordan C 6'11'' 265 20 C+ D D+ B- B A
Good jumping and strength. Solid blocks, post defense, offensive rebounding and defensive rebounding.
253 DeAndre Jordan C 22 6'11'' 265 B- D D+ A- A- A
253 DeAndre Jordan C 82 32.6 7.5 10.8 2.2 0.7 2.2 1.2 .388 .564 .000
Baby Mutombo? Jk. He had a down stats-wise last season with the Suns wanting to get a high draft pick, sacrificing statistics for a better draft pick. Nonetheless, 2.2 blocks 0.7 steals and 1.2 TOPG is nice. Should be closer to 3 BPG just like his rookie season on a different DC, would take him over Lopez and Love right now, but that could change after a few TCs. Nice that he retained his A pot even after exploding in TC though.

6. Cleveland Cavaliers from Heat - Serge Ibaka
Serge Ibaka PF 6'10'' 235 19 C+ C+ D B C+ B
Good strength. Solid post defense, jumpshot and blocks.
241 Serge Ibaka C 21 6'10'' 235 C+ C+ D- A B A
241 Serge Ibaka C 76 31.4 9.5 9.6 1.3 0.5 2.5 1.0 .408 .781 .250
He's turning into a very good player and could make a case he's just as good if not better than DeAndre Jordan, depending on how you value rebounding of your bigs and a little bit better offensive game. Ibaka was recently traded to Charlotte Hornets, as part of the Carmelo Anthony deal, I think he'll be someone that Sargo can build around especially if he improves more after his Scouted Potential rise to A after last TC.

7. Chicago Bulls - Nicolas Batum
Nicolas Batum SF 6'8'' 230 20 B- B- C B C B
Good jumpshot. Solid strength. Mediocre inside scoring, 3 point shot, handles, blocks and steals.
358 Nicolas Batum SF 22 6'8'' 230 B- A- C+ B+ C+ B
358 Nicolas Batum SF 80 16.8 6.8 4.1 1.5 0.3 0.4 0.6 .482 .878 .393
He started nice, but had a down TC last year, Play had higher hopes for him, not saying he's a dissapointment though, anything you want for a wing he can do, but that handles might be an issue down the line, or maybe because he is being played as backup guards? IDK, 4th quarter yelling why the f batum in! Compared to the next few folks this is still how it should go on a redraft though.
8. San Antonio Spurs (from Hawks) - Eric Gordon
Eric Gordon SG 6'3'' 215 20 B B C C C- A
Good jumping. Solid 3 point shot, jumpshot and strength.
216 Eric Gordon SG 22 6'3'' 215 B+ A- C C+ D+ B
216 Eric Gordon SG 76 35.7 16.6 4.6 2.6 1.1 0.2 2.2 .430 .797 .399
Kobe actually camped his scoring early before TC, causing broph to say that rookies should be camped after first TC not before, nonetheless, Eric Gordon looks like a flawed player who's a lucky TC away from being a star/all star at the least, but could also flame out. The negative rebounding as a SG is an issue as well as the stocks, but with his scoring at B+ A- already, there might be a spot for him if he could still improve more from his scoring abilities.
9. Minnesota Timberwolves (from Pistons) - OJ Mayo
O.J. Mayo SG 6'5'' 210 21 C+ B C+ C D+ A
Good jumpshot. Solid strength and quickness. Mediocre inside scoring and 3 point shot.
169 O.J. Mayo SG 23 6'5'' 210 B- B+ C+ C D+ C
169 O.J. Mayo SG 82 14.0 6.4 1.8 1.2 0.5 0.1 0.9 .457 .794 .434
Dissapointment but another case of Abney not camping his player, currently only RCed once, he looks like a homeless version of Eric Gordon which isn't much as Eric Gordon isn't a world-beater himself. Could be a good experiment if TC could turn him into a decent sixth man but right now, he's a leftover FA to be honest. Just got traded to the Philadelphia 76ers.

10. Los Angeles Clippers - Michael Beasley
Michael Beasley PF 6'9'' 235 20 B- B- C- C C+ A
Solid strength, inside scoring and jumpshot. Mediocre 3 point shot, handles and defensive rebounding.
164 Michael Beasley PF 22 6'9'' 235 B+ B C C B A
164 Michael Beasley PF 82 34.2 19.3 9.9 2.4 0.4 0.8 1.5 .405 .793 .325
The man I got my Username from, folks remember the hype Michael Beasley had way back? Who else thought that Beasley/Wade is the next elite duo? Well currently he got good offensive ratings, him not being SF-eligible hurts a lot as if he was allowed to play SF I think he could be way more valuable than a non-stock PF. But right now on a redraft Beasley goes higher than 10, with probably enough potential to hope for a drastic improvement for him to be a good power forward for years to come.

11. Indiana Pacers (from Bucks) - JaVale McGee
JaVale McGee C 7'0'' 270 21 C+ D+ D- B- C+ B
Good strength. Solid blocks. Mediocre post defense, offensive rebounding and defensive rebounding.
321 JaVale McGee C 23 7'0'' 270 C+ C- D- B+ B C
321 JaVale McGee C 51 11.7 2.8 3.9 0.6 0.2 0.7 0.5 .411 .627 .000
Blocking specialist nothing to write for but could be a third big/5th starter of a team without much big men. Leagues will have more Javale Mcgee the next few years, and there will be slots for all of them with how crazy over stocks BBS is.
12. Cleveland Cavaliers from Heat & Mavs) - George Hill
George Hill PG 6'4'' 188 22 C+ B C B C- B
Good quickness. Solid 3 point shot, handling and perimeter defense.
366 George Hill PG 24 6'4'' 188 C+ B+ C+ B D+ C
366 George Hill PG 82 18.1 9.0 1.7 3.2 1.0 0.0 1.3 .479 .728 .416
Emergency PG alert, 1 AC and 3 RCs left, best case he could be a 5th starter too as a steady point guard. Think on the mold of Saul Mariaschin last BBS. The rebounding could use some improvement though it's not much of an issue compared to the earlier issues discussed. Should have a long career, but not a superstar/allstar.

13. Minnesota Timberwolves (from Hornets & Thunder) - Anthony Randolph
Anthony Randolph PF 6'10'' 205 19 B- C D C+ C+ A
Solid inside scoring, jumpshot and strength. Mediocre blocks and steals. Poor handles.
306 Anthony Randolph PF 21 6'10'' 205 B- C D C+ C+ B
306 Anthony Randolph PF 78 26.8 7.0 7.3 1.1 0.7 1.0 1.5 .440 .796 .000
Bust, another case of Brendan not camping his players, but at this point even if he was camped I doubt he would be any better considering he have handles issue to boot too, currently with the Rockets after two straight dumpings of Minnesota and Phoenix.
