Gilgeous-Alexander is good now and he has the tools that can make him potentially great. Blessed with speed, and excellent size for a point guard, Gilgeous-Alexander averaged 14.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game. He shot 40.4% from three-point range and 81% from the free throw line. He led the SEC in minutes played, offering evidence of his importance to the Wildcats. He is aggressive and he gets to the free throw line with regularity, a trait we admire in PGs. He plays well in pick-n-roll situations. ...His assist-to-turnover ratio was 1.91-to-1 in his lone season of NCAA action. ...Gilgeous-Alexander tested with a ridiculously low 3.0% body fat at the 2018 NBA Draft Combine. ...His skill, combined with his size (6'6" w/ a 6'11.5" wingspan).  ...We think Gilgeous-Alexander will be drafted in the late lottery.

 

Good Advice: In 2012, the 27th pick in the NBA Draft was Arnett Moultrie. We advised, "Draft Draymond Green."
