Chris Cenac Jr. is a no brainer in the later half of the first round. Has all the tools to be great...
- 6'10" barefoot + 9' standing reach
- Elite hustle + rebounding
- Versatile defender
- Floor spacer
- P&R threat
- Athletic
Who needs him
These are some of Hannes Steinbach’s best buckets imo
He’s really efficient, positions himself well, uses his body well, & has good speed/power with the ball already
(Also has clear 3pt shooting upside)
He’s got so much room for growth, especially developing his skillset with pro trainers🔥
Morez Johnson's defensive versatility is one of my favorite elite skills in the 2026 NBA Draft. These playoffs are yet again showing us the necessity to have defensive versatility and physicality. At 6'9" 250 pounds, Johnson can defend nearly anyone on the court and lock up all three levels. Johnson is one of the best all-around defenders in this class.
