15. Orlando Magic – Tyrese Maxey, G, Kentucky

Heading into the 2020 NBA Draft, the Orlando Magic need offensive firepower. At 15, there might not be a better fit for that than Tyrese Maxey, a Kentucky guard that has the potential to be a spark on that end of the floor. With the way the likes of Tyler Herro and Devin Booker have emerged over the last few seasons, the Magic shouldn’t blink in selecting Maxey.

16. Portland Trail Blazers – Precious Achiuwa, F, Memphis

As long as Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum are leading the Portland Trail Blazers, you could make the case that this team is set on the offensive end. Defensively, however, this is a team that certainly needs help. Precious Achiuwa could be the perfect fit. Achiuwa might be the best overall defender in this draft and has the potential to be an absolute game-changer on that end of the floor.

17. Minnesota Timberwolves – Patrick Williams, F, Florida State

Patrick Williams has all the raw talent in the world and could emerge as a future star in the right system. He will take a few years to develop and likely won’t play a huge role in any team during his rookie season. At 6-foot-8, with elite athleticism, there is a chance that Williams sneaks into the lottery.
