Luol Deng - Duke - 6'8" 220 lb. SG, SF

Inside, outside threat. 6'8" and can dribble and shoot. He reacts quickly, and follows his shot. Right handed. He patterned his game after Grant Hill. …He plays with poise beyond his one year of college ball. A smooth slasher that runs the floor well enough to be a coast-to-coast threat. He is long, and quick to the hoop. Has some "plastic man" qualities. Rebounds outside his area. ...May still be growing. ...Explosive jumper. ...If his feet are set, he can knock down the three point shot. ...He can erase an opponents shot with his length and athleticism. He runs through the passing lanes well, and covers ground in a hurry. ...Still forces shots but showed at the end of the year at Duke that he was starting to learn how to move without the ball. He throws excellent passes, and he works on defense.

It seems likely that Deng will be the third pick. We think that is a bit high.
