    I like Crawford, especially with his length/wingspan. Not the most explosive player (34 vertical) but his length and body control make up for some of that.

    More likely he goes undrafted. For a shitty draft it's DEEP in point guards. If we're taking a PG at #34 our first choices should be Jamal Shead or Juan Nunez. And I would say Tristen Newton and KJ Simpson are likely ahead of him.

    He's a Small Forward, so not really an issue. He will likely go mid 2nd round to undrafted.

    I like any guys who are willing to come in and work out against other players. I don't know why I don't like Da Silva; I guess he just didn't stand out when I watched him play against the Ducks.

    For me it is because of his brother. I shouldn't dismiss him for that but they seem similar and Oscar is playing in Spain. Tristan does seem to be better 3 pt shooter though

    He's got Drexler's number, so that's in his favor...

    Just summarizing general feel of these guys after workouts:

    Trending up:
    - Devin Carter - Vencinie says he is "dominating everyone, similar to what Jaquez did predraft last year... Times two."

    - Salaun-- every one is saying he is killing dudes.

    - Clingan?

    Trending down
    - Holland

    Who else?
