Pick No. Team Pick Analysis
No. 1 Anthony Davis, 6-10, 220, PF/C, Fr., Kentucky
The Hornets won the lottery and get the future star. Davis is a shot-blocking freak, but is also skilled on the offensive end -- and can be a franchise-changing player.
No. 2 Bradley Beal, 6-3, 207, SG, Fr., Florida
The Bobcats need just about everything -- which is why the Bobcats could use a guy like Beal. He is extremely versatile -- and his biggest strength is his ability to shoot the ball from the perimeter.
No. 3 Andre Drummond, 6-10, 270, C, Fr., UConn
It's difficult to pass up on someone as big, strong and talented as Drummond. He can be a monster -- if Randy Wittman can find a way to motivate him to play hard all the time.
No. 4 Harrison Barnes, 6-8, 215, SF, Soph., North Carolina
The Cavs need a perimeter shooter -- and that's exactly what Barnes does well. He's also extremely tight with Cavs floor leader Kyrie Irving. In fact, they even share the same agent.
No. 5 Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, 6-7, 232, SF, Fr., Kentucky
MKG brings a winning attitude and a toughness to the table. He's a team guy who can really get after it on the defensive end. The Kings have enough scorers. This is the ideal fit.
No. 6 Thomas Robinson, 6-9 1/2, 237, PF, Jr., Kansas
T-Rob is an ideal complement to the skilled Lamarcus Aldridge. Robinson is a relentless power forward who will rebound and become a decent scorer due to his pursuit of the ball.
No. 7 Jared Sullinger, 6-9, 265, PF/C. Soph., Ohio State
The Warriors need help down low -- and Sullinger can score in the post and will be a force on the glass.
No. 8 Jeremy Lamb, 6-5, 180, SG, Soph., UConn
The Raptors desperately need someone that can fill it up from the perimeter. As long as Lamb doesn't have to be "The Man," he'll be fine. Tremendous potential and he will give Dwayne Casey a much-needed sniper.
No. 9 Tyler Zeller, 7-0, 250, PF/C, Sr., North Carolina
Zeller is a solid pick here. He runs the court exceptionally well, can score in the post and is a good rebounder. He's also capable of being a pick and pop power forward.
No. 10 Meyers Leonard, 7-1, 245, C, Soph., lllinois
The Hornets have a can't miss guy already in Davis. Why not roll the dice on another big-time talent in Leonard, a legitimate 7-footer who is a freak athlete and could become a top-tier center in the league if he matures.
