5 Late Lottery Draft Targets for Dallas Mavericks

3.) Harry Giles, Forward (Duke)

Giles, once the #1 rated high school player in the country coming into Duke, has since found himself still recovery from his knee injury. He missed the first 11 games of the season but has played the last 7. He is an athletic, 6’10” power forward who if healthy, is one of the best players in the class.

Chad Ford: “Based on talent, he’s as good as or better than anyone else on this board. However, two major knee surgeries — on top of the more minor procedure that delayed his start at Duke — loom pretty large right now.”

Chris Stone: “As a 6-foot-11 big man with a 7-foot-3 wingspan, Giles has excellent athleticism, tremendous defensive versatility and a strong offensive game. He is currently averaging 16.8 points and 15.1 rebounds per 40 minutes for the Blue Devils.”
