We have a fun episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way!
First, Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones are joined by Ben Pfeifer (EssentiallySports, Swish Theory) to talk all things NBA Draft!
Ben shares his scouting philosophy and how it's evolved, then digs deep into this year's class.
Among the topics: ranking the trio of AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson, and Cameron Boozer; what makes Caleb Wilson a special prospect; why Mikel Brown Jr. is the star gamble he'd be most comfortable with among a deep point guard class; the rarity of Aday Mara's skillset and where he fits -- and much, much more!
