A three-and-D player in the NBA can fill it up from deep while carrying the load on the defensive end of the floor. This is what former Arkansas standout Moses Moody could potentially bring to a team at the next level.

He averaged 16.8 points per game for the Razorbacks while shooting 35.8% from three-point range. At 6-foot-6, Moses Moody has great size for a perimeter player in the NBA. He is a problem on the defensive end and can shut down the best player on the opposing team.

A three-and-D player is something that is invaluable in the NBA — just look at Jerami Grant. This is a player that can give solid minutes right away. Moody is a rotation player right now and might even be a starting-caliber guard on some lower-level teams.

Moses Moody is not projected to be a top-10 pick but has not been out of the lottery much. It would be surprising to see him fall out of the top-14 in the draft. Arkansas had a strong year and Moody was one of the top players on the roster. He opened eyes immediately as a freshman and knows his value is high.

Moody will end up being a nice addition for some team. Here are three options that could be fits right away for the Razorback product.
