2. Matas Buzelis, F, G-League Ignite
Full disclosure - we don't want the Rockets to draft Buzelis.
Yes, we're ranking him second on this list. When it comes to upside, it's hard to deny Buzelis. He's a 6'10" wing who's flashed some ball-handling chops. That automatically qualifies him as a potential superstar.
Here's the rub - Buzelis can't shoot. He had a negative assist-to-turnover ratio for the Ignite last year. So, we've got a non-shooter with limited playmaking abilities. What are we talking about here?
We're talking about a project. Buzelis may put it all together and leverage his 6'10" height. He's got star potential, but the bust potential is too high for our money.
