    Jabari or Wiggins?

    I think Jabari is the better pro atm, but Wiggins has crazy potential.. I'd take wiggins.

    Parker then Randle. Unless I only had one hole to fill and it was a sf, then I would pick Parker then Wiggins.

      I'd still take Wiggins. Parker/Randle are more finished products. Wiggins still has a lot of room to grow. Plus, I feel like Self is holding him back.

        Wiggins is the only real gamble. He could turn out amazing or he could turn out a solid player. The other two are pretty much guaranteed to be good to amazing at the next level since they are already so developed but still have plenty of room for improvement.

        I am just not sold that Wiggins is a transcendental player. He has a chance because of his extreme athleticism, but so much still has to develop and no one has a crystal ball.

        I still take Parker or Randle due to safer picks.

          Throw Embiid into the mix.

            I'd go Embiid, then Wiggins, then Exum, and then Parker.

              Wiggins, up to this point, has been a monumental disappointment for me. This is a guy that people were saying was 'LeBron' 2.0…he's no where close to that. Very good, but so rough and not even close to being NBA ready.

                Anybody can look NBA ready in College but I agree Parker is more Polished for the NBA his size and Offensive abilities are there BUT his defense is kinda ehh

                Kinda reminds me of Melo just a little more athletic

                As for Wiggins he hasn't lived up to the hype but I'm not let this year determine his NBA Potential

                Wiggins kinda reminds me of Jeremy Lamb

                Embid is like a more Hybrid version of Nerlens Noel and can make a statement very quickly in the NBA

                CJ Fair is a guy I think people are sleeping on ... He reminds me of Tyshaun Prince in a way

                Aaron Craft is another sleeper ... He can bring leadership right from the start and his game kinda mimics Jason Kidd's

                  I agree, but it's also not his fault.

                  He didn't choose to be hyped up like the second coming of basketball Jesus. He's playing very well in college and his potential is undeniable, but there was no way he'd live up to those ridiculous expectations. He should go 30/20/5 to make everyone happy.

                      At this point in their careers, I'd have to go with Brian Scalabrine.

                        Watching Wiggins and LeBron both play in high school, I didn't really understand the comparison to LeBron. They weren't even in the same realm. Wiggins will be a nice player, somewhere around a Luol Deng type of player if I had to take a guess right now.

                        Parker, Randle, then Embiid for me depending position needed.

                          Can't believe I'm about to defend a Kansas player, but the "next LeBron" label is so unfair to Wiggins. They play the same position and that's it. He's an athletic freak who is still learning how to play the game. LeBron has always had the Magic Johnson type skills with a Karl Malone body and MJ athleticism. Wiggins had no chance at living up to the hype from Day 1. He's a very nice player who will only get better as he matures. Remember, he's still supposed to be a senior in high school this year.

                            Embib is way ahead of these guys, then I'd say Parker (and Randle) is more pro ready right now. Wiggins is improving all the time and has more potential. He's no Lebron but I don't think we can label exactly what kind of player he will be until he fills out physically. I'd take Embib first (no brainer) then I'd pry still take Wiggins based on potential but Parker will be a stud too.
