Chad Ford's Mock Draft

[upstater]

That is exactly the focus that could derail this team. Team play will be the heart of UConn's success. If any player starts focusing more on increasing their personal stats at the expense of the team, we will be DOOMED for sure!

The players should think in terms of Derrick Williams at Arizona. He was not a big national name until the NCAA tourney. He was a candidate for player of the year, true, but all the affirmation came during the tourney. In other words, there is no platform like the NCAA tourney. For a player like Napier, for instance, the lack of a tourney allows people to not even rate him in the top 10 of PGs.

I see Daniels as a late first round pick in 2015. As much as I like Boatright, I can't see him being drafted regardless of when he declares. That being said, I hope he makes me eat those words.

DD is a good player, but needs strength, handling, and more consistent play to be a top 15. I think Bazz doesn't get enough props and will be a serviceable pro. Boat needs to harness his speed and show more leadership on the floor. He may choose to leave, but his pro career will be in Europe.
