Part 1 has already been released, and now we are onto Part 2 which could be taken synonymously with Tier 2, as this group is a cut below the prior one in my eyes. In other words, these are the best prospects outside of the top 10 on my personal board.
Dean, with respect to Bufkin, is there any precedent to taller combo guards making a successful transition to point guard? I think the current trend with Luka coming into the league is for teams to try and get big guards who can't be hunted as easily during the playoffs. Guys like Jamal Murray or Tyler Herro, while weak defensively, can still lean on their positional size in the playoffs and that may be the hope for Bufkin who has a respectable A:TO.
Also regarding Anthony Black, do you think he has similarities to Jeremy Sochan last year? I see a similar high level processing speed with defensive versatility who ideally improves the jumper to hit their upside tail.
Nice work as always Dean! I'm curious to see what are your thoughts about Whitehead and why do you think Jett is a better prospect than him (health issues aside)
