I think it's D'Angelo Russell..he can really score the ball, and his ability to pass and find ppl is impressive. -RH https://t.co/arkEyDwoPy

I doubt he will..I'm surprised you'd go here with the Durrell Summers destruction of a certain player @ Mackey.. https://t.co/0bJQSCHpqA

I see LeBron & Durant types as superstars. I think Frank is going to be a good player for a long time in the NBA -RH https://t.co/I26NyygPRO

AJ Hammons his size is unmatchable, he defends, and he has a nice skillset -RH https://t.co/XRTaOce8oc
