Yesterday morning all the mock has Burries making it to 9 and Flemings going higher. I wonder if that changes now with Burries having an NBA ready body and Flemings being more undersized than expected. The thing of note about these shorter guards is that almost all have greater than +1 wingspans. It will be interesting to see Flemings speed, agility and verticals. They better really pop.
Flemings was already getting docked in places because of his shooting form and lack of 3 point volume. If he's too small to be a switchable defender in the NBA, I could certainly see Dallas going a different direction. You really have to hope Atlanta takes a non-guard and gives us a choice rather than sticking us with the fifth of the five. At the same time, you don't want Atlanta taking any non-guard Masai was hoping to take if he had already decided none of these guys have enough upside or don't fit the long term vision.
