Kahlil Felder, PG, Oakland

Yes, Felder played for small, Oakland University out of the Horizon League. But he was one of the top five scorers in the nation, averaging 23 points per game. And he’s competing well at the NBA draft combine, regularly scoring in double figures according to draftexpress.com. He also shocked scouts with four steals in his first game.

Felder is known for his microwave scoring ability and his talent in creating for teammates.  He fits today’s game and will find a place on a team if he can develop his defensive skills.

Plus, it always seems like there is some undersized, athletic point guard that is drafted late turns into a stud pro player. Maybe this year it’s Felder.
