Round One
1. Oakland Oaks - DeMarcus Cousins C 6'11'' 266 19
B+ C- D+ C+ B B
B+ C- D+ B B+ B
+2 defense, +1 rebounding
+3 overall
Nice TC for Cousins, who went +3 in the same way that Greg Monroe did. It'll be fun to watch how each of their careers develop. Now knowing eric's sim affinity for Monroe, he may have been the right guy at 1.1.
2. Dallas Mavericks (from Magic) - Paul George SG 6'7'' 188 20
C+ C+ C- B+ C A
C+ B- C B+ C A
+1 outside, +1 handles
+3 overall
Didn't like the scoring grades for PG-13 but the +1 outside helps and, since he's a shooting guard, that attribute should continue to grow naturally. Definite +25 inside candidate, and if he sticks at SG the C rebounding grade should be plenty sufficient.
3. Washington Bullets - Greg Monroe C 6'11'' 245 20
B+ D+ C- C+ B+ C
B+ D+ C- B A- A
+2 defense, +1 rebounding
+3 overall
See: DeMarcus Cousins
4. Detroit Pistons - Gordon Hayward SF 6'8'' 212 20
B C+ C C C C
B C+ C C+ C C
+1 defense
+1 overall
Knowing eric's distaste for Hayward (at least relative to his contract), I stayed far away from him. But as I go back and look at his writeup, his strengths of Inside, Jumper, and Handling could be really nice. He maintains SG eligibility at 6'8, so the C rebounding shouldn't hurt much.
5. New Orleans Pelicans - Derrick Favors PF 6'10'' 245 19
B- D+ C- C+ A- A
B- D+ C- B- A- A
+1 defense
+1 overall
He's going to lead the league in rebounding in a couple of years.
6. Harlem Globetrotters (from Heat) - John Wall PG 6'4'' 182 19
C+ C B+ C D+ A
C+ C+ A- C+ C- A
+1 outside, +1 handling, +1 defense, +1 rebounding
+4 overall
The biggest jumper from the rookie class, Wall's lackluster scoring grades and poor D/R were alarming, but he improved each of those areas in his first TC. Could be a strong rebounder at PG with a C- grade. It'll be interesting to see how he develops since his Quickness is probably near 100 and Inside is a listed strength.
7. Miami Heat (supplemental) - Eric Bledsoe PG 6'1'' 201 19
C+ C B- B- D A
C+ C B- B+ D B
+2 defense
+2 overall
Needs scoring help and rebounding help.
8. Portland Trailblazers - Cole Aldrich C 6'10'' 250 22
C+ C- C- B+ C C
C+ C- C- B+ C C
Even
10. Chicago Bulls - Wesley Johnson SF 6'7'' 195 21
B- C+ C C+ C A
B- C+ C B- C A
+1 defense

11. Dallas Mavericks - Boban Marjanovic C 7'3'' 299 22
B C- C- C+ B- A
B C- C- C+ B- B

13. Charlotte Hornets - Evan Turner SF 6'7'' 205 21

Round Two
2. Miami Heat - Hassan Whiteside C 6'11'' 222 19
B C- C- B C A
B- C- C- B+ C A
-1 inside, +1 defense
Even
Can't believe that "C" rebounding grade after he averaged 12.3 per 36 in college. Without it, he looks like a guy who can purely get blocks.
3. Orlando Magic - Ekpe Udoh PF 6'10'' 243 21
B- C- D+ B- B- F
B- C- D+ B B C
+1 defense, +1 rebounding
+2 overall
4. Washington Bullets - Mark Titus SG 6'4'' 230 23
C+ B+ C C D+ C
C+ B+ C C+ C- C
+1 defense, +1 rebounding
+2 overall
Might be a sneaky good find here for KN. The scoring grades can definitely be worked with and the bumps in both D/R categories could make Titus an effective two-way guy. The C- rebounding hopefully means he won't be a liability in that department.
