Trey Lyles – 6’10, 250 lbs. Power Forward (Kentucky, Fr.)

Strengths: A skilled and versatile forward who showed some really intriguing flashes offensively while fighting for minutes on a crowded and ridiculously-talented Kentucky frontline. Can do just about everything offensively. Good size.

Weaknesses: Lacks elite athleticism and quickness. Defense. Somewhat of a tweener, although he may have been able to prove himself as a full-time power forward if he wasn’t on such a deep team.

NBA Comparison: Carlos Boozer

Draft range projection: Mid-to-late first round
