Our mocks had John Collins of Wake Forest going as high as No. 11 to the Charlotte Hornets, all the way back to the low 20s. If the Portland Trail Blazers get him at No. 15 as our consensus predicts, they’ll be getting a strong inside player and rebounder, particularly on the offensive glass.
He probably won’t space the floor for you; he had no three-point game to speak of as a collegiate, and he’s not a distributor. But he’ll be able to receive a pass and finish at the tin for you.
