    He's too small. His game wouldn't translate to the NBA at his size.

    He's the next Larry Bird!

    He's 6'8" 244 and every site I see lists him as an NBA small forward. He is also extremely skilled and was considered a point forward in high school. I don't think you know what you are talking about.

    Not as highly touted but I like Elias Harris out of Gonzaga.

    Maybe Mick could help me out here. I like his high basketball IQ, shot 55% as a Freshman (45% from three) and is a solid rebounder.

    Great athlete. About as freak of an athlete as you will find, but he definitely has some holes in his game. Doesn't know if he will be a 3 or a 4 at the next level. He gets severely flustered if a double team comes his way. Hasn't done that well this year early because he has had shoulder and achilles injuries. He'll probably be available where we pick.

    We'll never get him - but this thread is about "wants" - - and I want him as a Blazer!

    The best Center prospect not in the NBA right now could be Jonas Valanciunas. A lock for the top-5. He's putting up nearly a double-double in the Euroleague in only 17 min/per at age 18.
