Nate Archibald
Position: PG
Height: 6'1''
Weight: 160 lbs
Age: 21
Pros: "Tiny" Nate Archibald is a 6-time NBA all star and a 1-time NBA champion - he's good. His ceiling is limitless, and it looks like he'll be one of the best inside scoring PGs in the league (think John Wall, says the optimistic Wizards fan). Archibald is pretty good at scoring from the outside too, and would be a viable 2nd or 3rd option on any team in the league. His real strength is his passing (where he has a very high ceiling), so pairing him with a SG or SF who can score at will could be a good idea.
Cons: Since he's "Tiny", he's not the best guy to rely on defense. His perimeter defense and his stealing will need to have a lot of focus so that he isn't a liability. To start, he's pretty raw, and drafting him could be a risk. He may struggle on outside focused teams that like to shoot a lot of 3's as he is much more comfortable in the paint. Though his passing is great, he may commit a lot of turnovers (especially since he likes to drive).
Overall: His cons aren't too glaring and he has the potential to be a perennial all star, just like he was in the NBA. If you will take turnovers and a lack of defense as a trade off for great scoring and passing, Nate's your man.
Projection: 4-6
