7. Denver Nuggets: Justise Winslow

How high is Justise Winslow‘s ceiling? Is it as high as a wing like Jimmy Butler? I certainly think so.

And no team would pass on a guy who could end up a clone of Butler with today’s emphasis on positionless basketball.

Winslow is the best perimeter defender among his peers and he’s a strong driver with expanding range on his jump shot. If he continues to improve his handle and playmaking skills he has star upside and that’s exactly what the Nuggets need.

He’s an obvious choice out of the prospects left on the board.
