    Who has the higher ceiling though ? I don't follow college ball too much but most people were talking about Wiggins like he was going to be the next Lebron or something.

    Parker looks LEGIT. Great first step and like others have said it looks like he will translate well to the NBA. I don't know too much about Wiggins, is he really just too raw at this point to judge?

    He's not in a system that features him, as Bill Self doesn't utilize perimeter players as much as other coaches. He'll likely be more productive in an offense in which he's a primary scorer. He's already shown signs of being an excellent one-on-one defender.

    Parker is and has always been the better basketball player, because he has excellent fundamentals, and a great feel on his shot. Wiggins is and has always been the better pro prospect due to his insane agility and athleticism. They are two VERY different players. Think...... Drummond vs Sullinger. That's the best comparison I could make, tho wings and bigs are different, it's potential vs bb skills.

    Idk why people think Wiggins is so raw, he has a great first step, he cuts very well, he's impossible to guard in transition, he has a step back jumper now, he does actually have nice range and is already a lock-down defender. He still #1 imo
