28. Damian Jones

Age: 20
Position: C
School/Country: Vanderbilt
Height: 6-11.5
Weight: 244 pounds

From all I’ve seen from Damian Jones out of Vanderbilt, he just leaves me wanting bit. Obviously he has size and athleticism that are intriguing for a big man, but I question his instincts and his skill level after three years in college. Even still, his physical tools are first-round caliber.

27. Brice Johnson

Age: 21
Position: PF
School/Country: North Carolina
Height: 6-10.5
Weight: 209 pounds

Brice Johnson was a walking double-double in his senior season with the Tar Heels as he led them to being national runner-ups. He has solid size and length and is a crazy athlete with good timing and instincts around the rim. He’ll need further polishing, but he’s done enough to be a first-rounder.

26. Zhou Qi

Age: 20
Position: C
School/Country: China
Height: 7-2
Weight: 218 pounds

The physical tools of Zhou Qi truly are staggering as he’s a legitimate 7-2 with crazy length and even a hair of athleticism at that size and with his 9-4.5 reach. Moreover, he’s shown in workouts and on tape that he has crazy skill as well. He’s the enigma of this draft with huge risk, but possibly huge rewards waiting as well.

25. DeAndre Bembry

Age: 21
Position: SF
School/Country: Saint Joseph’s
Height: 6-6
Weight: 207 pounds

The NBA Draft Combine was slightly upsetting for DeAndre Bembry considering that he measured smaller than many would like. However, a 38-inch max vertical was nice to see and he showed over three years with the Hawks what he’s capable of. Even with his size issues, I love Bembry coming into the NBA.
