16. Oklahoma City Thunder (from Boston Celtics)
Alperen Sengun, C, Turkey
The Thunder have gathered a ton of NBA Draft capital over the years and we will begin to see some being used this year. After adding Barnes, the Thunder could follow it up with an extremely-productive international prospect. Alperen Sengun has a skillset that looks like that of an NBA big already. He can score on the post or from the midrange and is comfortable rebounding on both ends. This is a starting-caliber big man who could develop into a star.
17. Memphis Grizzlies
Usman Garuba, C, Spain
Usman Garuba stands at 6-foot-8 and is an incredible defender. He did not put up big numbers overseas which might confuse some on why he is a potential lottery pick. Garuba is one of the most raw players in the class but also has one of the biggest upsides. If put in the right situation, he could thrive. The Memphis Grizzlies might be losing either Jaren Jackson Jr. or Jonas Valanciunas this offseason so it would make sense to add a replacement.
18. Oklahoma City Thunder (from Miami Heat)
Ziaire Williams, SG, Stanford
Just how good is Ziaire Williams? He might not have reached his full potential yet and that is an encouraging thought for teams. At 6-foot-8, Williams has the size of a forward but can create his own shot off the dribble at any level. He is better with the ball in his hands and is hard to stop in transition. This is because of his ability to get to the rim or pull up in the midrange. On a team like the Thunder, Williams will have an extended role and that could work in his favor.
19. New York Knicks
Keon Johnson, SG, Tennessee
If Keon Johnson is available here, it could be a steal for the New York Knicks. He is one of the best athletes in the 2021 NBA Draft. Johnson can explode off the ground and is quick with the ball in his hands. The Knicks are in desperate need of a point guard in some capacity this offseason. Johnson could be the next star at the top of the offense for the Knicks.
20. Atlanta Hawks
Cameron Thomas, SG, LSU
Cameron Thomas was the leading scorer in the SEC this season and seems to be a fit for the Atlanta Hawks. We got a chance to see what the new-look Hawks could do as they made a run to the Eastern Conference Finals. Thomas is another perimeter piece that could contribute on the offensive end along with Trae Young and Bogdan Bogdanovic.
