Wagler can play defense but he's not your point-of-attack dog. I think he'll be a great NBA player.
I know it's probably impossible for the Mavs to pick 5th but it would be interesting to see which guard the Mavs would pick if they could go with any of them. The guards at the top all look like they'll be very good, but very different players. In a sense, Wagler is almost the opposite of Acuff.
Wagler -- tall and skinny, plays on/off ball, style is "crafty / high IQ," average defender, plays slow
Acuff - short and strong, ball dominant, style is "apex predator," poor defender, plays with force
Flemings - prototype size, plays within a rigid system, style is "elite burst and blow by," good defender, plays fast
