This Jarace Walker video is pretty impressive.

Honestly he´s not bad, but I think the upside is limited. I think he moves his feet somewhat funny. and that makes me doubt whether he can really defend on the perimeter. Then despite his impressive wingspan he´s only 6´8, which is really short for a center. I´m not sure how effective he´ll be in the NBA. I´d pick Hendricks, Whitmore and Dick over him. Whitmore I´m not 100% sure about, but I feel like Walker has the least upside of all these guys.
If a team is really in love with him, I´d try to extract an extra asset, if we land at #4. That would probably be my play. Pretend to pick him and hope Orlando, Washington, Utah or Indiana bite on a trade down. I´m really least sure what to do at #4 and I think that´s probably where most teams are.
