2. Coby White
- Draft year: 2019
- Pick: 7
Is it a little ambitious to put Coby White this high on the list? Maybe, but I don’t care. The kid deserves it.
White technically doesn’t even have a full season under his belt. His lone season has been postponed due to a global pandemic. Does that matter? No. He showed enough over the last month to validate his ranking on this list.
Check out Coby’s last nine games (points/assists/rebounds).
- 33/2/3
- 33/2/6
- 35/3/7
- 22/3/2
- 19/5/6
- 26/6/1
- 26/6/2
- 21/8/6
- 20/5/5
Those numbers were coupled with impressive .480/.432/.903 shooting splits.
It’s still early, and in a few years, I might look foolish for putting Coby this high on my list, but this is where he belongs for right now. His potential matched with his recent production solidifies him as a solid second-best, which is a pretty good place to be for a 20-year-old kid.
