So I've been in Vegas this week checking out summer games and I wanted share a couple of thoughts.

Dante Exum-I just don't see it. He looks so overmatched. Can't shoot at all.

Julius Randle-Hasn't impressed me. I like his ability to put the ball on the ground but he's not finishing and he's been kinda weak on the boards.

Jabari Parker-About as advertised. Has a great offensive feel and has held his own on the boards. Like that he can grab a board and push it up himself and put pressure on the defense.

Noah Vonleh-I see nothing at all.

Andrew Wiggins-Very athletic but very raw. Not in the camp that says he'll be a superstar. Shot is bad and I don't see a lot of instinct. Defense is good though and will keep him on the floor and hopefullly, the offense comes.

Nerlens Noel-A serious player. He's as thin as a pencil but his defensive instincts are like a young Hakeem Olajuwon. His offense is a little raw but it's gonna come. He's my summer choice for rookie of the year.

Zach Levine-Has totally shocked and impressed me. Shoots better than I expected. Takes good shots. Makes good passes. Plays off the ball. Extremely explosive. Plays with a poise and mturity that you don't expect based on his experience.

Doug McDermott-Not Adam Morrison. Dude can play. Very nice shot and handled himself ok on the glass and on defense. The kind of player that could help any team.

If the draft were held now, Parker would go first, Levine second, Wiggins third. Well, Embiid first if healthy.
