29. San Antonio Spurs: John Collins, PF, Wake Forest

That guy is having an incredible season. If he were white, he'd be going to Charlotte for sure. Might still go if he wins a player of the year award.

29. San Antonio Spurs - John Collins, PF, Wake Forest

Good scorer and rebounder who struggles defensively and doesn’t have much shooting range. He’s essentially a bigger, younger David Lee, which is a great value at this spot.

[AFBlue]

Curious whether the defensive limitations can be overcome with teaching and effort. I know he's not very long, but if his defense is passable then his offense might be worth it.

I'd put Caleb Swanigan in the same boat.

[Russ]

NBADraft.net has him going 13 and DraftExpress has him going 18. Based on that, it's unlikely he's around when the Spurs pick.

[DesignatedT]

I think this guy's going to be a stud.

[Chinook]

I think this guy's going to be a stud.

Yeah, he's my number-one wish-list player. Chicago will probably draft him, though.
