The San Antonio Spurs are finally picking up some wins at home and that should have fans optimistic for another playoff run and thus, a pick outside of the lottery in the upcoming NBA Draft. There are plenty of great choices for players outside the top 14 picks in what is promising to be an incredibly deep draft.
This week’s draft prospect is Lauri Markkanen out of Arizona. The 7’0”, 230-pound freshman has already shown off his high ceiling in only four games averaging 19.5 points and 8.3 rebounds per game. He’s also shown that he has range shooting about 37 percent from downtown and it’s not just taking a few shots and hitting a lot.
