    The sleepers are: Jerome Randle, Brian Zoubek, Paul George, Paulao Prestes, and Dominique Jones.

    If we can get Brian Zoubek late in the second round I'm all for it.

    Too bad Paul George won't last to #14 now. The more I read about him, the more I think Adelman can really develop his game. One of the few late lottery picks that truly has good star potential.

    I could also see us draft a PG in the 2nd round. Lowry's not a sure thing to be resigned, and Llul isn't around as emergency PG should someone get injured.

    Zoubek looks like Joel Przybilla to me. He'd be a great backup for somebody.

    The way you say this makes it seem like he thinks the guy will blow up. Considering he listed just about every single good point guard before the "sleeper column", including our very own Llul, it's pretty difficult to pick a player from the rest of the bunch.

    If anything, that article was pretty right on about the players.

    Zoubek looks like he could be a solid Pro.

    Zoubek is garbage. I'd rather bring back Hilton Armstrong than suffer through watching Zoubek attempt to play against NBA-level competition.

    Parakhouski is more of a sleeper to me.
