4. Justise Winslow, Duke Blue Devils

NBA Doppelganger: James Harden

Justise Winslow is my pick to be the best player out the 2015 NBA Draft. Of everyone in the draft, Winslow definitely has the most superstar potential.

Winslow is a more athletic version of James Harden, and after a few years of refining his own game, Winslow is going to be one of the scariest players in the NBA, hands down.

Winslow can already score, basically, any way he wants. At 6-foot-8, Winslow has the size to post up smaller players. He’s quick enough to get into the lane at will, and he has a sweet 3-point stroke. On top of all those great attributes, Winslow is a freak athlete, like the freakiest of all athletes.

It’s a bird…No, it’s a plane… No, it’s Justise Winslow swatting the poop out of Stanford’s Chasson Randle.

NBA Teams (as if they’re reading this): Winslow is the guy you want to tank for, I promise.
