Despite being a senior, Prince retains intrigue due to his energy and ability to shoot. While his three point numbers have fallen off from previous years, he knocks down free throws at a plus 80 percent clip and shows a versatile all around game. He'll look to cement a position in the first round in workouts and interviews with teams.

Comparison: DeMarre Carrol

I like this kid he reminds me a little bit of Kawhi he would fit in great with our second unit.

Didn't realize this dude is from SA.

[MaNu4Tres]

Like him. Love his defense, motor, competitiveness -- can shoot.

3 & D role player with small ball four potential -- exactly what Spurs need moving forward.

looks like Gerald Wallace

[Taking it to the Hole]

I really like this guy. He has a good motor, is going to compete for boards and has pretty good defensive instincts as well as shooting. If we want to compete with the likes of the Dubs and OKC we need to have active wings and I can see him being a solid backup to Kawhi.
