2019 NBA Mock Draft 2.0: The post Combine edition, OKC Thunder still focused on shooting
By Rylan Stiles
The overseas big man has a chance to be a very solid post offensive player with fancy footwork around the rim. Sekou Doumbouya averaged 32 percent from deep, and that would allow the 18 year old to space the floor.
Sekou has time to grow and develop and the rebuilding Timberwolves have the chance to allow him to grow at the NBA level during his rookie campaign, or at the G-League level for more boosted minutes and action.
He does not have the surest of hands, and he is not the best decision maker.
Sekou is also extremely poor on defense by all accounts.
However, he has the potential and upside needed for NBA General Managers to take a chance on him way higher than his true production indicates.
Sekou stands 6’9″ with a 6’11” wingspan and an 8’11” standing reach. That married with his 230 frame, makes his size something that will also be intriguing to NBA front offices.
