The top 3 are the real difference makers who could be Flagg's co-star (top 2 could be #1's on their own) while having an impact on both ends. I have Acuff and Boozer as potential all-stars who will be limited by their defense.
I think Philon is being underrated because he's a sophomore, but he's actually younger than Burries and only 4 months older than Brown. I don't view either Wagler or Flemings as a lead guard on a contender, but they could become quality starters. Brown is the wildcard here who may move into the Acuff/Boozer tier or to the bottom of the 1st round in a re-draft. Yax will be a solid defensive role player who can guard 1-5. I wouldn't fault the Mavs for taking Burries over him due to fit.
1) Peterson
2) Dybantsa
3) Wilson
4) Acuff
5) Boozer
6) Philon
7) Wagler
8) Flemings
9) Brown
10) Lendeborg
