11. Orlando Magic: Deyonta Davis, Michigan State
Continuing the theme of picking the best player available are the Orlando Magic.
The Magic have young talent everywhere: Elfrid Payton, Victor Oladipo, Mario Hezonja, Aaron Gordon, and Nikola Vucevic. So because of that, they can choose a project player at eleven to develop under their talented roster. That choice would definitely be Deyonta Davis.
Davis is regarded as a raw talent. A freshman out of Michigan State, he’s got a lot of time to grow and mature into an impact player. Standing at 6-foot-11, he’s a strong, physical post player who could develop into something special given the opportunity. He could also sit behind and learn from one of the best offensive centers in the game in Vucevic.
It’s really a toss-up on what Orlando will do with the pick, but Davis wouldn’t be a bad choice.
