2020 NBA Draft: Pelican Debrief Big Board 1.0

45. DEVON DOTSON / GUARD / KANSAS

Kansas’ leading scorer this past year, Devon Dotson is a speedy dynamo. He is as talented as anyone in the class when it comes to getting to the rim and scoring, his end-to-end speed makes him great in transition, and he played high-quality defense for most of his college career. Dotson’s streaky three-point shooting and size hold him back though.

Pro Comparisons: Young Tony Parker, Jeremy Lin, Patty Mills

44. SKYLAR MAYS / GUARD-WING / LSU

An athletic combo-guard, Skylar Mays was the leading scorer at LSU and projects as a microwave scorer of the bench in the NBA. His shooting can come and go and even though he is a good playmaker he often plays hero ball on offense. With his strong defensive abilities and good coaching, Mays could become a quality rotation player.

Pro Comparisons: Marcus Smart, Jarrett Jack

43. TYRELL TERRY / GUARD / STANFORD

Tyrell Terry is a player showing how much Stephen Curry has impacted the game of basketball. He is an elite shooter who is willing to pull up from anywhere on the court and loves running around off the ball to get open looks. A solid playmaker as well, the only thing holding Terry back from being a first-round player in the class is his size. Standing at barely 6’2″ with a slight frame it’s unknown if Terry can withstand the modern NBA physically.

Pro Comparisons: Mark Price, Trae Young with less playmaking

42. MALACHI FLYNN / GUARD / SAN DIEGO STATE

Malachi Flynn rose up draft boards thanks to the outstanding season he led San Diego State on this season. A shorter player at 6’1″ but one who puts in a lot of effort on both ends of the floor, Flynn could have a long career as a back-up point guard. An advanced playmaker in the pick-and-roll, who likes to pull up for smooth jumpers makes him an appealing target.

Pro Comparisons: Aaron Holiday, Jalen Brunson

41. IMMANUEL QUICKLEY / GUARD / KENTUCKY

A smaller player at 6’3″ but one with a unique 6’10” wingspan Immanuel Quickley is yet another guard capable of making an impact as a rotation player. A 43% shooter from deep for his career at Kentucky, Quickley has proven he come off the bench and heat up instantly. After playing with some of the most talented players in college basketball off the bench in the last two years, Quickley has shown that he’s willing to play a complementary role in the NBA.

Pro Comparison: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope
