Tennessee is struggling on the basketball court, but that hasn’t really seemed to hurt the stock of five-star freshmen Jaden Springer and Keon Johnson. The two have been in the first round mix since before they even stepped on campus at Tennessee, and according to SBNation’s own Ricky O’Donnell, both could be off the board in the top 15 picks.
O’Donnell projected Springer to go 8th overall to the Raptors, while Johnson landed at 13 with the Spurs. Below is his analysis on both selections.
8. Toronto Raptors - Jaden Springer, G, Tennessee
Springer is a bully of a 6’4 guard who thrives overpowering his opponents on both ends of the floor.
