14. Portland Trail Blazers – Saddiq Bey, F, Villanova

Saddiq Bey is one of the more interesting shooting prospects in the 2020 draft class. While there are questions about his ability to evolve as a player, he’s still one of the best deep shooters on the draft board. That alone should guarantee him a spot as a selection in the top 20 of the first round.

Bey has great size too, standing at 6-foot-8. During his sophomore season at Villanova, Bey averaged 16 points on 48 percent shooting from both the field and 3-point range (six attempts per game). Bey might not have the star potential that some of the other names in this draft have, but he’s a flat-out shooter.

In the right system and next to the right players, there’s no question that he could play a meaningful role on a team. With the last pick in the lottery, the Portland Trail Blazers take a chance on Saddiq Bey and make him the final lottery pick.
