not yet just seeing which options are out there
i have faith in Mike Malone being able to develop Mclemore over the off season
If Wiggins plays shooting guard he'll probably be the best but overall a lot of guys have potential to be very good and I hope some of them pan out because the 2 guard spot is not all that strong at all at this moment.

I watched 5 mins of this video he look iiiight.
Smart and Exum are the two best combo guards in the draft.
Bulls seem to like those long shooter types like Butler and Snell so I'd think yall would want James Young. Dude graduated a year early and is doing solid at the college level as a freshman, despite being a year younger than his peers.

Scarcity at SG leads me to think he should go top 5

zach lavine is listed as a combo guard.
this. James Young is going to be a fantastic NBA player... he is ooozing potential. He's a MUCH better shooter than his stats right now in college imply, he's been in the process of adjusting his shooting motion, he's very streaky but can fill it up when he's feeling it and is a good slasher.
NBA comparison says OJ Mayo on NBADraft.net
But it's looking like the Bulls will be able to draft a good 2 guard this year if they can get a pick in the early teens.
So he's getting selected before Smart in your opinion? That's the only dude I can see getting bumped from top 5 consideration. Wiggins, Embiid, Parker and Randle are locks to go in the top 5
He's looking more like an SF now, dude has grown 2" in the last 2 years.
He's listed at 6'8" now, which will probably end up being 6'9" in shoes. He looks like a more athletic Gallo, or the player we thought Gallo could be.

...that hate from a walvie. He's a solid 6'4 measured at a camp prior to his frosh year with shoes off, a tad small for an NBA SG. I think he's missed 2 games his entire tenure at Michigan State so surely not 'always injured.' Athletically, he's good, he's not a freak, but he can leap, board and dunk, but I have seen him miss dunks on 3 point play attempts. Great defender, he's had multiple games with 5 or more steals.
My knock on Harris is his handle. Sometimes he settles for 3's, avoiding the need to put the ball on the floor and drive. His handle gets sloppy on the break too. He cannot really reliably create a shot for himself either. If he plays like he played last night he's one of the better 2-Guards out there if not the best.
