Kelly Oubre

School: Kansas 

Position: SF

Size: 6-7, 204 lbs

Projection: Top-15

Just looking at him, Oubre has all the physical traits of your prototypical wing player in the NBA. Oubre has the ability to be a top notch two-way player at the next level, but lacks mastery of any one skill.

He’s pretty good at a lot of things — including defensively and athletically — but isn’t great at anything. Which can both be viewed as a good and bad thing. He has the foundation to be a great NBA player, but there is reason to be hesitant on Oubre’s NBA outlook.

And the fact that he played collegiate basketball at Kansas doesn’t help any.
