Taurean Prince is Built for the Modern NBA

Tonight, Baylor fans will be able to tune in to the NBA draft and see a familiar face for the fourth draft in the last seven. Taurean Prince is projected by most major outlets as a first round pick somewhere between 15-24, just outside the lottery. If that projection manifests, Prince will be the 3rd Baylor player selected in the first round since 2010, joining Ekpe Udoh (2010, 6th overall) and Perry Jones III (2012, 28th overall). He will also be the 7th Bear drafted into the NBA (8th if you include the honorary drafting of Isaiah Austin) since Scott Drew first reached the Elite Eight.
