DaRon Holmes II, F/C, Dayton
Holmes is a similar player to Bona. His main appeal as a prospect is his ability to switch on the defensive end. Holmes also has a relentless motor - the next time he quits on a play will be the first time.
Moreover, Holmes II has a little more juice in his offensive game than Bona. He thrives as a short-roll passer. Holmes will be a non-shooting big man in the NBA, but he shouldn't be a liability on either end of the floor.
Sure, he only measures 6'9". With a 7'0" wingspan, that shouldn't be an issue. Holmes II has plenty of potential to be one of this class's steals.
That's exactly why we doubt he'll be available at 44. Someone is likely to scoop up Holmes II before the Rockets are making their choice at 44. If they haven't, he'd be a perfect addition to this roster.
