16. Phoenix Suns – Aaron Holiday, PG, UCLA

While many may think this would be a bit of a reach, Aaron Holiday could thrive in today’s NBA. He doesn’t have the size to be a prototypical NBA point guard, but is an explosive scorer and athlete that would fit right in with the Phoenix Suns.

Holiday is only 6-feet tall, but has a 6-foot-7 wingspan, which will help him on the defensive end. He averaged 20 points and six assists during his final season with UCLA.

Don’t expect Holiday to be a starter from day 1, but he could grow into that role with the Suns. At the very least, he will give the team depth at the position.
