Draft Express is generally more reliable and it has Brimah going as the #15 pick in 2016, updated on November 24.

True, he needs to get stronger, guys in the league would eat him up but what he does have is great shot blocking instincts which usually translate from college to the pros

Good thing Amida has more than shot blocking instincts.

yea what I was saying is that the only part of his game ready for NBA is his shot blocking, he still has to improve his game as a whole before he even considers leaving early

Hate to be that guy, but Amida is weak, and therefore he is a GOD AWFUL rebounder for his height. He should be grabbing 9-12 a game. Not 3-5. That's the tip of his problems. Needs to attack the glass better.

Hamilton is listed in the 2016 mock, not 2015.

Well 12 rebounds a game in 14 would have led the nation. Lofty expectations for anyone. 9 rebounds would be top 35 and that's a bit less stringent I suppose. He is asked to defend the lane and to block shots, which does not place him in the best position to rebound. When he blocks a 3 point shot, which he has done more than once this year, he is 20 feet from the basket.

Amida is a great weak side defender and has gotten better as an on-ball defender,but still needs to develop more especially against heavier players. Everyone mentioned would do themselves a favor by staying atleast 1 more year in school.

Okafor averaged 17pts, 11.5reb, and 4.1 blocks. It can be done. Brimah has the drive, just needs to get better. The potential is there.
