Jonathan Isaac

“Jonathan Isaac is likely to go in the top seven in this year’s draft. Isaac is similar athletically to Lakers forward Brandon Ingram, but many have a higher ceiling. Isaac averaged 12 points a game and eight rebounds a game this past season as a Florida State Seminole. Isaac can come in and be as good as Al Farouq-Aminu was in his lone year with the Mavs right away. Of course, the main attraction about Isaac is his potential to get significantly better than Aminu has become.” –Evan Siegel
