No one seems to think that Michigan State’s Branden Dawson could be a solid NBA prospect as most mock drafts have him dropping through both rounds undrafted. Tom Izzo says otherwise, thinking he could definitely get a spot on an NBA team.
At 6-foot-6, 225 pounds, he has the athleticism and wingspan (6-foot-10) needed for the next level; He’ll be viewed as a guy who can virtually guard all five positions on the court and can absolutely rebound the ball with his outrageous jumping ability. However, his offensive game is why most teams are hesitant on him, which is why he is projected going in the late-second round of the NBA Draft.
