MKG

Davis’ Kentucky teammate, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, is another one to watch on Thursday night. The scouting report on MKG is that he doesn’t have an extremely polished offensive game, but he has the potential to become a big-time scorer at the next level. Experts have the ‘tweener landing in the top five, due to concerns regarding his mid-range game and his ability to handle the rock, but his tenacity on defense coupled with a knack for getting to the rim almost effortlessly, makes Kidd-Gilchrist a smart selection. The kid is a proven winner –having won at every level, including a National Championship this year with Kentucky– and what GM wouldn’t want a winner on their team? Pair him with an elite scorer, and you will have a dynamic duo to go up against the NBA’s best.
