Alec Peters Should Be A 2nd Round Target

Alec Peters did not receive much national attention playing for Valparaiso in Indiana. As a 22 year old senior, Peters should be able to make the jump to the NBA this summer with his consistent shooting ability. Shooting 37 percent on threes on over 5 attempts per game would be impressive for a shooting guard, but Peters plays as a power forward. Standing 6-8 with a 6-wingspan, Peters will be undersized at the next level but lacks the athleticism to play the three. Despite these limitations, Peters still projects to be drafted in the middle of the second round in the 2017 NBA Draft.
