2019 NBA Mock Draft: Pre-Draft Lottery night mock
Scouting Report. SF. player. 23. 118. Pick Analysis. North Carolina. Cameron Johnson
With Joe Ingles struggling mightily in the playoffs and Royce O’Neale far from a sure thing, the Jazz will look to inject some healthy competition at the wing to get some offensive help for franchise cornerstone Donovan Mitchell.
After spending four years in college, Cameron Johnson is not an unpolished prospect that needs time to develop. He’s ready to win now. Johnson’s 45.7 shooting from deep and ridiculous 64.8 true shooting percentage indicate his play can back that attitude up too. Johnson has the skill and the size to become Utah’s starting small forward in the future.
PF. Tennessee. 24. player. Pick Analysis. Grant Williams. 93. Scouting Report
Of Philadelphia’s four all-star caliber players, Tobias Harris probably presents the largest flight risk. Even if he stays, Mike Scott will also be heading to free agency. The 76ers performance in the playoffs has brought a spotlight on the weak bench. Grabbing the experienced Grant Williams who spent 3 years under coach Rick Barnes at Tennessee could be the perfect move to help bolster the bench.
The two-time SEC player of the year possesses a strong low post offensive game and a surprising amount of agile shiftiness. Unlike most prospects available this late in the draft, WIlliams has proven he’s effective against tough competition. For a team whose playoff window is open now, Philadelphia can plug and play Williams immediately.
