Really tough to say, right now it seems like there are four possible #1s. Embiid, Wiggins, Parker, Exum. Out of all these guys, most people say Parker and Exum are the most NBA ready guys, although I feel like people really underrate Wiggins atm, as he plays within the system and doesn't look to shine as much as Parker. Embiid has huge potential but doesn't seem NBA ready at all to me, he should definitely consider stying in college for one more year(minimum!). Randle seems to have fallen off a bit, think he'll be drafted after these guys. Only way I see Exum being drafted behind Randle is if people underestimate the Australian pro-league and the experience he has. But again, there's no clear #1, all the guys I mentioned will be considered. People still think you should draft the center first, but with the dominance of OKC and Heat(carried by two wings, no real center) and the increasing pace/spacing of the game I think having a franchise wing player may be more beneficial than having a Center. Only my two cents though.
Harrison twins are bad ... i imagine they will stay in college ... Wiggins yesterday was very good ... he had a lot of energy and he was aggressive. Parker is strong enough to play the four long-term ? also james young(streaky shooter) or Wayne shelden(better shooter but less attempts in a good system) ?

Created shot. 5. Loses balance trying to avoid big. Phantom foul. 6. Transition open dunk. 7. Clean block. Phantom foul. 8. Loses control spinning. Phantom foul. 9. Loses control driving. Weak call. 10. Drives makes layup. Phantom call +1. 11. Very nice spinning + floater. He got this move down. 12. Put back garbage shot. 13. Transition. Misses layup. Weak class for FT. 14. Misses transition floater. Phantom foul 15. Open 3 point shot. Was assisted. 16. Self created 3 point shot. Very nice. Was assisted. 17. Steal and dunk off poor piss inbound. Garbage shot. 18. Fade away 3 point shot. Very nice. Was assisted. You are right. For such a "dominant performance", the highlight was sure pretty garbage. Shoot the 3 pointer alright, literally cannot finish near the rim. For the the shots that he made and shots he was awarded with FT, he finished 46% of the shots. That is actually higher than his season average finishing around the rim.
To be honest with you, I watched the highlight package and expected more. I mean it is impressive to me that he scored 41 points, but there wasn't much in the highlight package that excited me. He looked out of control to me a lot. I'm really not sure what to think of this kid. I have no bias one way or the other and I'm desperately trying to see where all the hype is coming from. I genuinely want to feel the excitement, but so far I've just been only mildly impressed. I'm going to keep watching though.
No, ever since joining the Rockets and becoming the man Harden is an electrifying talent. Specially watching him drive to the basket you know he is almost unstoppable. I think Wayne Selden is my sleeper because he is playing with Kansas system and doesn't get that many shots up. Wiggins,Embiid,and Ellis take most of the shots among the starters. That being said, alot of Kansas fans hate thier starting pg Tharpe. They think he doesn't do a well of a job running the offense so Selden is force to play some point as well.
