Dyson Daniels is a long, athletic point guard that can play defense exceptionally well and has a very high upside. His humble nature and already being an elite defender at the point guard position has a few teams salivating to select Daniels.

There is a very high upside, as his physique resembles a Magic Johnson type of player, but his play is more similar to Lonzo Ball. If Daniels can improve on the offensive end and work on his jump shot, he will be worth an earlier lottery selection.

With more than a handful of teams looking for some backcourt help, it wouldn’t be surprising to see a team reach for Daniels (especially if Jaden Ivey is off the board in the top 4).
