Rounding out the first team is the guy who should’ve been selected in the top 5 selections (looking at you New York). Emmanuel Mudiay may not have a great jump shot, but what he does have you can’t teach and that’s elite level quickness at 19 years old. With Ty Lawson smoking hookah and telling the world he’s going to Sacramento, Mudiay can come in and show what he does best and that’s score the basketball. The Nuggets don’t have a real scoring option and Mudiay fills that void immediately. I think Mudiay will be in the conversation as one of the best point guards in the NBA by his second season.
