Atlanta Hawks SF Cameron Reddish, Duke<\/h2>\n<p>Cam Reddish is a polarising pick who could be a bust but just as easily become an All-Star. He had the misfortune of being the third man at Duke and so didn&#8217;t get the ball as much and therefore did drift out of games occasionally. However, he is worth the risk and on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiveminutesspare.com\/nba\/nba-top-prospects-in-the-2019-draft\/\">pre-draft<\/a> board, we had him going a few places higher.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_12038\"  width=\"1320\" height=\"743\"  data-origwidth=\"1320\" data-origheight=\"743\"  data-relstop=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XOorxgHAgoU?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&modestbranding=0&rel=0&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>15.

Doumbouya won&#8217;t be 19 until the 23rd December and will probably need a year or two to fill out, but he has soo much potential especially defensively. Watch out for him breaking out in 2021 when the Pistons rebuild may be complete.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_39465\"  width=\"1320\" height=\"743\"  data-origwidth=\"1320\" data-origheight=\"743\"  data-relstop=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TByrT2qxTVs?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&modestbranding=0&rel=0&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>25.

If he regains his 2018 MVP form he is the steal of the draft, and if not he will still be a decent bench player.
