Bernard King
SF | 6'7" | 211 lbs | 20 years old
Scouted by: BEI Clement Jones (A/A-)
Pros: King is one of the top athletes in this draft class. He is a versatile forward who, with work on his 3PS, could see some minutes at the 2 if a team is trying to go big. He has potential to average a career double-double with his excellence in rebounding. What makes him even more valuable is the fact that he is only 20 years old with tons of potential. King projects to be an excellent all around player for his entire career from scoring to rebounding to defending.
Cons: The biggest issue for King is his 3PS... or lack there of. Even his potential to improve there is lackluster. The only other weakness seen is his passing game. So without any help on those holes in his game, they will likely remain holes. Scouts are concerned about his inability to pass out of the double team so it will be up to his coaches and trainers to help him grow into an absolute #1 option.
Overall: Bernard King is going to be one of the best forwards in the game in a few years, maybe even to the scoring level of Elgin Baylor. His defense is as highly touted as his scoring prowess. But above all, teams are going to need to find an answer athletically for him because good luck otherwise.
Projection: #2-3
