NBA Draft: Prospects That Are Steals In Their Draft Slot

Jeremy Tyler
These players I believe are steals in this year's NBA Draft at their current slot. I'm not saying these guys will be superstars, but you're going to get your moneys worth with these guys.

Josh Selby- Selby was Rivals #1 prospect in  high school in his class. Because of receiving improper benefits, Selby was suspended for like 9 games or something. This gave him a slow start at Kansas. With Kansas' ultra balanced offense and depth from upperclassmen, he wasn't really given the opportunity to stand out and display his talents. I think Selby is a phenomenal defender and can be a play maker when the ball is in his hands. Most drafts don't even have him going in the first round, but I think Selby has star potential and will at worst be a great role player. Selby is projected as early to mid second round, but I think his talent and potential should put him near the 25 spot.

Kyle Singler- Singler is projected as late first early second round guy. I think he's a great quality player for that range. guys in those slots last year weer Daniel Orton, Lazar Hayward, Tibor Pleiss, Dexter Pittman, and Hassan Whiteside. Not too much production there. I see singler as a great Bench guy that is versatile on offense with his inside out game and defense with his height and long arms.

Jeremy Tyler- Tyler will forever be known as the kid that left high school early to play overseas. well that was a epic failure with his immaturity of not even being 18 showing. because of this a lot of teams are scared to take him, however I would love for the Celtics to grab this kid. Tyler has perennial NBA All Star potential. Tyler is 6'11 and had the longest wing span at the draft combine. With the right coaching and veteran leadership (KG lets no one slouch) I think he would be the biggest steal of the draft. Tyler is slotted as a middle second round guy, and if he did the usual route, he would have most likely been a top ten pick.
