He won't succeed as a 3 at the next level. However, his range will help him become a solid 6'6" SG. He's definitely got the size for that position.

He could succedd, he may be undersized but he has the strengh for it. Not to mention he also has a nice little post up game.

He cannot be stopped

He grew 1.5 inches from 2013 to 2014 according to DraftExpress. The last measurement was 6'6" without shoes.
He's strong, quick, and you see flashes of greatness at times.

And he only just turned 19- he's been 18 for most of this season! You have to think he might grow a bit more. One more inch and he would be over 6'8" in sneakers... can't see that he'd have trouble at the 3.

That celebration and missed assignment after the shot was stupid, though- hopefully Coach K has a sit down with him.

dammit so he will be listed as 6'7-6'8 SF. What are we going to do with MElo

Teams won't really be able to do that if he was on the Knicks with other NBA talent on the floor with him. The spacing is different in the NBA as well. If you put OK4 in the Triangle with all that off ball motion he'll dominate inside.

You cant compare college and the nba. College doesnt have any nba bigs. If you noticed BRIGGS tried really hard to boost up whoever Utah big was like he was on the level on Towns....Not even close. And i doubt anybody is sleeping on OK4.....Hes just not the best player in the draft. I think right now he has a very slight edge. But once u get to the nba....and into a free flowing system....with more playing time.....there will be others players with higher potential.

OK4 is legit and he's smart. He wasn't forcing things tonight. He's patient and looks for his teammates. He's all about winning and doing what's best for the team. I think you're severely underestimating his talent and IQ. OK4's impact is great even when he's not taking a ton of shots. His team is winning playing THROUGH HIM!

Not at all....OK4 IQ and Talent is very high. Im not doubting him. I still believe he will not be the best player coming out of this draft Or on his team. Its all a lucky guess at this point. Experts are wrong every year...so its ok if im wrong. My gut feeling is winslow will be the better nba pro between the two. And towns has the most upside. Nothing i said knocks OK4 at all. If we draft him....great.....if we dont.....great. Its a deep draft full of solid NBA ROLL PLAYERS with superstar potential.
