Centers
1. Andre Drummond C D+ D B B- A
Andre the Giant was ranked the top high school prospect in 2011. The freshman center from UConn had a lot of hype to start the season and by the second half of the year, much of the hype disappeared. Drummond was able to showcase his biggest strengths of his game, shot blocking and rebounds. Offensively, he is just not there. Scouts feel he has the chance to develop an inside offensive game. But defensively, you have a beast waiting to be unleashed. Great potential

2. Hassan Whiteside C D- D C+ B+ A
Another guy with off the court issues &maturity behavior. Whiteside has all the skill set to be a grear player. Scouts fear how much heart is in the game of basketball. Definitely one of the top rebounders in the draft. Probably the second best shot blocker. Will need to improve on his post defense & scoring abilities. Terrible free throw shooter. Great potential

3. Festus Ezeli C D D C C+ A
Ezeli has amazing potential. His skill set hasn't fully developed. A pretty good post defender. He may lack the quickness to be a great shot blocker. But Ezeli has a lot of growth to his game. He may be a risky pick but could also turn out to be a great pick.

4. Meyers Leonard C C+ D+ C C+ B
A five star recruit out of Illinois. Meyers has the skill set of a guard trapped in a centers body. Great mid and long range jump shot. Solid rebounder. Will need to improve his strength. But Leonard still has a lot more to develop in his game. Good potential.

5. Tyler Zeller B- D D C+ B- D
Zeller had an incredible college career at North Carolina. Especially his last two seasons. Tyler showed his toughness and physical skill set. A guy who can score and rebound. Scouts just don't feel he has the athleticism to develop into a star.
