Draft Links: Draft Gambles, Barnes, International

Earlier today, Luke Adams provided some draft updates on several international prospects.  Last night Ryan Raroque posted a draft links list of his own.  As we approach June 28, Hoops Rumors will provide our readers with extensive draft coverage.  Here are some draft links headed into Thursday night:

  • Sam Amick from Sports Illustrated examines who he considers high-risk, high-reward prospects in his "Part II" draft evaluation.  He considers these names the most difficult for NBA teams to project – in essence, boom or bust types.  Some of the high profile names that Amick lists are Andre Drummond, Perry Jones III and Jeremy Lamb
  • Fox Sports Ohio's Sam Amico puts together a draft profile piece on North Carolina swingman Harrison Barnes.  Amico implies that Barnes is an NBA-ready piece that can contribute right away, albeit without the upside of a franchise-changer.  Here is our Prospect Profile on Barnes.  
  • Jonathan Givony from DraftExpress provides his scouting reports on some of the top prospects at the Nike International Junior Tournament in Istanbul.  These are some names to look out for in upcoming NBA Drafts.
