Justise Winslow
Winslow is an elite talent in this year’s draft, a stretch-four in college capable of guarding superstars with his uber-athletic body and able to finish strong around the basket. Justise also showed a solid touch from beyond the arc, and surrounded by shooters like Durant, Morrow, and Steve Novak, expect that to only get better.
It’s highly unlikely that Oklahoma City is able to grab the Duke-alum barring a draft-day trade (or a miracle that propels them into a top-3 selection in the draft), but if they are somehow capable of acquiring him, watch out.
