The drawbacks to drafting the Gonzaga Bulldogs standout junior big man Killian Tillie are clear, but so is his upside. Tillie is a good three-point shooter and has a large range of moves in his arsenal down low in the post. But his lengthy injury history combined with strength and size questions could limit where he ultimately falls come the 2020 NBA Draft.

Duke had plenty of freshman talent on the roster in the season that was. But they also had a lot of question marks among their former four and five-star recruits that joined the program as part of the highly touted 2019 signing class. Ultra-bouncy shooting guard Cassius Stanley showed his upside in a big way during his time in Durham, but he had a few concerning injuries along with putting his low floor on display too.

Stanley doesn’t really have a natural scoring touch, and he shot a rather subpar 36.0 percent from three-point land. He is supposed to have a natural shooting stroke and a good offensive arsenal. But questions will remain on those fronts entering the 2020 NBA Draft.

The up and down season for the Texas Tech Red Raiders can be accredited to how young they were. One of the positive notes for head coach Chris Beard and the Red Raiders was the play of freshman sensation 6-foot-4 combo guard Jahmi’us Ramsey.

Ramsey is a good outside shooter that does need to improve from the charity stripe and with his vision with the ball in his hands. He could’ve gotten to the free-throw line more, and shot better once he got there. But a three-point shooting percentage better than 42 and a turnover rate lower than 13 percent is nothing to complain about from a true freshman guard.
