90. A.J. English

Age: 23
Position: PG/SG
School/Country: Iona
Height: 6-3
Weight: 182 pounds

A.J. English might not be a familiar name, but the man was highly productive over his time with Iona. Despite being a bit undersized, he’s a guy that could offer a team (maybe even the Lakers) solid young backcourt depth.

89. Jameel Warney

Age: 22
Position: PF
School/Country: Stony Brook
Height: 6-8
Weight: 259 pounds

Because he’s not a massive guy who’s older and played at Stony Brook, Warney might not have the pedigree of some men. However, he was highly productive in college, averaging 20.1 points, 10.7 boards, and 3.1 blocks in his senior year. He should get a Summer League invite from someone without question.

88. Shawn Long

Age: 23
Position: C
School/Country: Louisiana-Lafayette
Height: 6-10
Weight: 256 pounds

Shawn Long’s an interesting big man with solid length, a strong frame and strong size to go with solid production with the Ragin’ Cajuns. He’s a more traditional big with some intrigue surrounding him.

87. Julian Jacobs

Age: 22
Position: PG
School/Country: USC
Height: 6-4
Weight: 180 pounds

After a junior season with the USC Trojans where he was questionably productive (11.6 points, 5.4 assists), Jacobs is NBA bound. While the physical baseline tools are there, he could be a project worth investing in for some team as an undrafted free agent.

86. Danuel House

Age: 23
Position: SF
School/Country: Texas A&M
Height: 6-7
Weight: 215 pounds

In terms of age, measurable, and even consistency, there are warranted concerns about Danuel House. However, the forward showed he can score in bunches and carry a lineup when he gets hot. Like it or not, that’s valuable in today’s NBA when it comes to shooting.
