14. Portland Trail Blazers – Isaac Okoro, F, Auburn
Should Isaac Okoro still be on the board at No. 14, it would be considered to be a huge surprise. In some mocks over the last few weeks. some have Okoro being taken in the top 8. Should the Portland Trail Blazers be able to select Okoro at this point in the NBA Draft, they might run to turn in their selection card to Adam Silver.
Okoro could be considered a big unknown, considering he’s still growing as a player. Many have tried to compare Okoro to Andre Iguodala but it’s difficult to pinpoint to one single comparison. Okoro can defend at a high level and will lean on that at least early in his career. However, if he improves on the offensive end, he could emerge as a great two-way player.
Okoro only shot 29 percent from 3-point range during his freshman season at Auburn and perhaps that might end up being the biggest question mark in his game right now. Had he shot 35 percent, he’d probably be taken much higher.
Though, without answer those questions regarding his offensive game Okoro is going to be considered to be a big risk.
