14. Chicago Bulls

Pick: Denzel Valentine, G, Michigan State

Denzel Valentine isn’t exceptionally fast, quick or the best leaper, but he’s one of the best all-around basketball players in this draft. He’s great in pick-and-roll offensive player and can even rebound and distribute the basketball well.

He’s improved in every aspect of his game every year at Michigan State and has all the makings of a great leader. He has his difficulties on the diffusive end, sure, but if he can fill in the right role for the Bulls, he should pay dividends for Chicago.

When watching Valentine, he won’t exactly scream Derrick Rose, who he will probably be replacing, but he’s a solid guard that they should be excited about.
