Before we talked about the 12th draft, the overall 12th draft success rate is still good, but compared to the 12th, the overall quality of the 11th draft is worse, today we will take a look at the top ten of the 11th draft, today, what height have they reached? How many people have lost their water? At the same time, we have rearranged the top ten of the draft, and as for Clay, Leonard and Butler, which are not in the top ten, let's take a look.
Ninth Young - Veselli
Because one neurotic in the top ten can't be mentioned, we can only rank in the top nine. Veselli was originally the sixth pick, for this player everyone should not be impressed enough, after all, although the young man is a high-ranking player, but since the beginning of the rookie season he did not get too many opportunities to prove himself, the rookie and he was abandoned by the league after playing, but this draft template, presumably everyone should know, he is Yi Jianlian, the Verselli was also an excellent jumping man, but because of the lack of adaptability to the league, coupled with insufficient confrontation ability, it was eventually watered.
Viselli averaged 3.6 points, 3.5 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game in his career, shooting 52.1% from the field, he did not have the projection ability of the UAE League, although the overall shooting rate seemed to be efficient, but how many points he could score, the basic opponent could take how many points from him, and even more, the defense of the crotch led to him not playing, he was undoubtedly the biggest parallel cargo in this session, seeing him should understand why the US media is not optimistic about foreign players a lot of times.
Eighth Fredette
The original tenth pick, for James Fredette believes that everyone is not unfamiliar, he previously played in the CBA for shanghai team, Fredette can become the top ten of the draft because he was known to the outside world with excellent projection ability before entering the league, but after entering the league, Fredette did not play due to insufficient confrontation ability, and finally fell off, compared to look at the 11th pick Clay, the King's draft vision is also too bad.
Fredette can only average 6 points, 1 rebound and 1.4 assists per game in his career, shooting 40.9% from the field and 37.2% from three-point range, Fredette has a single season three-point shooting rate of more than 49%, such a projection ability is indeed very scary, but in the NBA what is most needed is body and talent, and eventually Fredette also fell to the point of no ball to play, it turns out that in the small-ball era, not every shooter can succeed.
Seventh Derek Williams
The original second pick, the young man's draft template of the year was James, but to be honest I think the scouts really looked at the eyes this time, although Derek Williams is strong enough, but the offensive means and athleticism are really poor with the old Zhan, and now it has fallen to the point of no ball to play, that year was still a big hit, fortunately the Cavaliers won Irving with the No. 1 pick, and the Timberwolves took away this big parallel cargo.
Derek Williams averaged 8.9 points, 4 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game in his career, shooting 43.4% from the field and 30% from three-point range, his projection ability was very bad, except for relying on strength to kill the inside line, other aspects can be said to be nothing, now Williams has joined the Israeli league, his personal ability is limited and he has been unable to play in the league, and he has also played in the CBA league before.
Sixth than Yongbo
The original seventh pick, Biyongbo's draft template that year was Ibaka, and in the early days of the league, Biyongbo also showed the potential of defensive gates, but with the advent of the small ball era, he did not get so many opportunities, and eventually it was also watered, the main reason why he was lower than Yongbo's draft pick that year was his limited offensive ability with the ball, which also led to his not being cultivated as the core of the team.
Now he can only be regarded as a marginal rotation inside line, can only play a certain role in protecting the frame, plus the offensive end can only eat cake, he can not get so many opportunities can also understand, than Yongbo career average of 5.2 points, 6.1 rebounds 1.3 blocks, shooting rate of 53%, if born in the traditional basketball era, may be a good interior gate than Yongbo, or a good substitute center, but the arrival of the small ball era let him fall to today's point.
Fifth Brandon Knight
The original eighth pick, Knight's original first round eighth pick, Knight's draft template was Paul, although Knight did not show the organizational ability and defensive ability of Paul's youth at the beginning of his career, but the killing ability was not worse than Paul, the three-point shooting was also very stable, and after encountering a major injury, he finally destroyed, if not injured, Knight's future height may not be low, and now it has fallen to the point of edge rotation.
So far in his career, Knight can average 14 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 0.9 steals, shooting 41.1%, three-point shooting rate of 35.2%, after this season Knight played a 10-day contract with the Lone Ranger, there is no team interest, it is estimated that it will not be long before Knight may also fall overseas to play, but at the peak of his time, he averaged 18+3+5 per game, absolutely unrelated to parallel goods, and now he is only 30 years old, which is a pity.
Fourth Trestan Thompson
The original fourth pick, TT is now more often playing pseudo starters, but at the peak of his time, he is also the league's top blue-collar interior line, the defense is hard enough, when James was able to lead the team to complete the reversal in 16 years, in addition to him and Irving, TT is also crucial for the inner line of the frame, and even said that his role in this year is more critical than Love, but he likes to get into trouble, only 30 years old is no longer at the peak of his career.
TT career so far averaged 9 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1 assist 0.7 blocks, shooting 51.8%, three-point shooting rate of 26.3%, averaging 3.3 rebounds per game is very good, don't look at TT is a short inside line, only 2.06 meters tall, but in the face of most tall inside line, TT is also able to limit the opponent, now TT plays for the Bulls, although it is more traditional center, but young plus championship experience also makes many teams like him very much.
Third Kemba Walker
The original ninth pick, Walker's draft template that year was Hardaway Jr. and Aaron Iverson, although the pick was relatively low, but the draft template was here, it was also doomed not to fall, and the main reason for Walker's low draft pick that year was his defensive ability, although to this day his defense is still crotch, but with excellent offensive firepower, he has also been selected for the all-ming and best team, but this season in the Knicks this year may ruin Walker's career.
So far in his career, Walker can average 19.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.2 steals per game, shooting 41.8%, three-point shooting rate of 36%, Walker's playing style is not a championship puzzle, his defense is a weak rib, this is one aspect, in addition, Walker does not have the ability to have the ball, because of these two aspects, so he has not got the desired opportunity in the Knicks this season, but also to the point of no ball to play, it is estimated that Walker will seek another high in the offseason.
Second Valanciunas
The original fifth pick, although Varan has not been selected as an All-Star, but in terms of current ability, he is better than Walker, a traditional interior player, although he has a good low-post technique, but the reason why he has been unpopular before is that he does not have three-point ability, and now it is good, Varan has practiced a great projection ability this season, according to the current situation, it is estimated that he will always hold a big contract in the future.
So far in his career, Varan can average 13.4 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1 block per game, shooting 56.3% from the field and 35.9% from three-point range, which is still not too many opportunities in the early stage of his career, which has led to Varan's data not being good enough, in the past two seasons, his average score per game has exceeded 17 points, rebounds are also in double figures, the performance is very good, If Varan can lose weight to make his mobility better, it is estimated that the maximum salary contract is not far from him.
First Owen
Original, Irving retained the first position, although the entire 11th re-arrangement, maybe Leonard will kill to the first position, but Irving to keep the top three should not be a big problem, after all, Irving's personal ability is here, even if his professionalism is not good, Irving has been underestimated is his talent, his athleticism and body shape throughout the history of the NBA is also a great presence, coupled with good technology, he can be said to be one of the best backcourts in active singles ability.
So far in his career, Irving can average 23 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 1.3 steals per game, shooting 47%, three-point shooting rate of 39.3%, Owen has the talent to chase history, but the professionalism is too poor, sometimes because of his sister's birthday, he will take leave not to participate in the game, this season is to play part-time for no vaccination, Durant's helper, to be honest, the strength is there, but it is definitely the most unreliable.
