25. Memphis Grizzlies – Kyle Filipowski, F, Duke
There’s at least an outside chance that the Memphis Grizzlies end up trading this first round pick but if they do make a selection, perhaps they could make a move for a big to help solidify their frontcourt. One option could be Duke’s Kyle Filipowski.
He has been up-and-down this season at Duke but he’s a legit 7-footer with the potential to be a situational player at the next level. Quite frankly, that’s all you can ask from traditional bigs in today’s NBA game.
26. Indiana Pacers (via Cleveland) – Marcus Sasser, G, Houston
Marcus Sasser may be considered a bit underszied for a guard in today’s NBA but he comes with the necessary quickness and athleticism that is needed to thrive for a smaller guard at the nexve level. Sasser is averaging 16 points on 37 percent shooting from 3-point range. He’s also one of the most experienced prospects in this year’s draft class.
