Name: Dan Issel
Position: Power Forward
Height: 6'9"
Weight: 240lbs
DOB: 10/25/95

Pros: This two time All American from the University of Kentucky is a scoring machine. Dan is an above average rebounder who does the dirty work. He is most efficient getting the ball in the low post and getting to the rim along with the put backs from offensive rebounding. He doesn't possess the jumping ability but he has the strength and size to box guys out and do his job that way.
Cons: Other then the fact that he is not a pretty man, Issel will never be useful outside of the post. He doesn't do well passing back out of the post after getting the feed. Another weakness is Dans leaping, or lack there of.
Overall: Dan is the perfect example of a great 6th man, or fill in starter. He doesn't play the D to be a force as a starter but can come in and put up some points. He should end up a very serviceable player but not an All-NBA performer. Since there are not many players declared yet I'll be a little more open on my guess of where he goes in this draft.
Projection: 7-14
