1. Michael Jordan SG 21 6'6'' 195 B B- C+ B C A
1. Michael Jordan SG 21 6'6'' 200 B B- C+ B+ C A
Overall: +1
A disappointing first TC for the most anticipated prospect in the class, who despite keeping his A potential, only received a +1 in defense. I still expect big things out of MJ.
2. Charles Barkley SF 21 6'6'' 252 B C C+ B- B+ A
2. Charles Barkley SF 21 6'6'' 257 B C+ C+ B+ A- A
Overall: +4
Barkley had a great +4 and in some important categories to boot. +1 in outside, +2 on defense and +1 in rebounding. He looks to be a good one.
3. Hakeem Olajuwon C 21 7'0" 255 B D+ D+ B B+ A
3. Hakeem Olajuwon C 21 7'0'' 260 B C- C- B+ A- A
Overall: +4
Hakeem matched Barkley at +4 in his first TC. He made the big leap forward from D+ to C- outside scoring which is what many GMs were concerned about. He also improved his handles, defense, and rebounding by one grade.
4. Sam Bowie C 22 7'1'' 245 B+ C- C- B+ B B
4. Sam Bowie C 22 7'1'' 250 B+ C- C- B+ B B
Overall: +/- 0
Nothing changed. Pretty disappointing for Bowie and the Suns who some suggested could have been the 2nd pick of the draft. At least he gained 5 lbs.
5. Sam Perkins PF 22 6'8'' 235 B- B- C- B- B- B
5. Sam Perkins PF 22 6'8'' 235 B- B- C- B B B
Overall: +2
It is somewhat encouraging for a guy with B potential to improve both his defense and rebounding, but the Bullets would have probably liked to see Perkins improve his offensive game some as well. Still, a positive TC for Perkins and he kept his potential. He looks like a successful pick.
6. Alvin Robertson PG 22 6'3'' 185 C+ C+ B B+ C B
6. Alvin Robertson PG 22 6'3'' 185 C+ B- B+ A- C A
Overall: +3, +1 Potential
We see our first jump in potential in Mr. Robertson. He went +3 as well in all the PG important skills. Great TC for Robertson and the Wolves have to be happy with their 6th pick of the draft.
7. John Stockton PG 22 6'1 170 C+ B- B+ B D+ B
7. John Stockton PG 22 6'1'' 170 C+ B B+ B+ D+ B
Overall: +2
Stockton improved his outside scoring to a B and his defense jumped to B+. Pretty nice TC and he kept his potential, but nothing earth shattering from the Warrior.
8. Kevin Willis C 22 7'0" 220 C+ D+ D B B A
8. Kevin Willis C 22 7'0'' 232 B- C- D- B B+ A
Overall: +2
Willis went +3 in the important categories for a big man. A -1 in handling takes him down to +2 overall, but he kept his A potential and seems to be developing at least some semblance of an offensive game. Looks like he will be a very useful big in the league for years to come.
9. Tony Campbell SF 21 6'8'' 215 C+ C+ C B C+ A
9. Tony Campbell SF 21 6'8'' 215 C+ B- C B C+ B
Overall: +1, -1 potential
Worrisome results from Campbell. He only increased his outside scoring and saw his potential already drop to a B. This has to be scaring the Knicks who spent a top 10 pick on him. Too soon to declare anything, but he has the makings of a bust.
10. Mel Turpin C 21 6'11'' 245 B- C D+ B- B- A
10. Mel Turpin C 21 6'11'' 250 B- C D B B A
Overall: +1
Turpin went +2 in the important big man categories, but saw his handling go down 1. Overall, a decent TC and he kept his A potential. Looks like a nice asset for the Heat.
11. Champ Godbolt C 19 7'2'' 275 C B- D B C A
11. Champ Godbolt C 19 7'3'' 285 C B- D B+ C+ A
Overall: +2
A +2 for Godbolt is encouraging considering he kept his A potential and is only 19 years old. Trofie and the Bucks have to hope he starts to develop his inside game as well, though.
12. Terence Stansbury SG 22 6'5'' 175 C+ B C B C- B
12. Terence Stansbury SG 22 6'5'' 180 C+ A- C B+ C- A
Overall: +3, +1 potential
Stansbury blew up in TC for the Sonics. +2 outside and +1 defense. His potential jumped up to an A and he looks to be a stud. Great value for the 12th pick in the draft.
13. Otis Thorpe PF 22 6'9'' 230 B C- D+ B+ B+ C
13. Otis Thorpe PF 22 6'9'' 230 B C- C- B+ B+ C
Overall: +1
His handling went up! That was exciting.
14. Jay Humphries PG 22 6'3'' 185 C+ C+ B- B- D+ B
14. Jay Humphries PG 22 6'3'' 185 C+ C+ B- B D+ C
Overall: +1, -1 potential
A +1 is disappointing by itself but when paired with a reduction in potential to C, it is even worse. Looks like a bust in Canada.
15. Jerome Kersey SF 22 6'7'' 215 B C C- C+ C+ A
15. Jerome Kersey SF 22 6'7'' 215 B C D+ C+ C+ A
Overall: -1
Kersey is our first prospect to decrease overall. He kept his A potential so there is still some hope for him, but he looks to be on his way to bustville.
16. Michael Cage PF 23 6'9'' 229 B- C- C- C+ B B
16. Michael Cage PF 23 6'9'' 229 B- C- C- C+ B B
Overall: +/- 0
Nothing to see here. Move along.
17. Nathan Best C 23 6'9'' 254 C+ C- C C+ B- A
17. Nathan Best C 23 6'9'' 259 C+ C- C C B- C
Overall: -1, -2 potential
Bust with a capital B. Ouch.
18. Leon Wood PG 22 6'3'' 185 C B- B C+ D A
18. Leon Wood PG 22 6'3'' 185 C B A- C+ D B
Overall: +3, -1 potential
Nice +3 in the PG relevant categories for Wood, but the drop to B potential signals a nice career as a backup PG IMO.
19. Dick Mumma C 21 6'11'' 254 B D- D B B C
19. Dick Mumma C 21 6'11'' 254 B- D- D+ B B C
Overall: +/- 0
Very disappointing TC for Mumma. He was supposed to at least be a good bet to contribute right away, and the decrease in his inside scoring makes even that a stretch.
20. Thor Conradt SG 21 6'5'' 222 C+ C+ B- C D+ A
20. Thor Conradt SG 21 6'5'' 222 C C+ B- C+ D+ B
Overall: +/- 0, -1 potential
Not much to write about for Thor. He didn't improve at all and his potential fell to a B. Odin also admitted his disdain for Thor's namesake so things are not looking good for this player.
21. Lancaster Gordon PG 22 6'3'' 185 B- C+ B- C+ D+ B
21. Lancaster Gordon PG 22 6'3'' 185 B- C+ C+ C+ D+ A
Overall: -1, +1 potential
Not sure what to make of this for Gordon. He got worse handles but his potential jumped up to A. Overall, a disappointment I would say as a PG he is going to need strong handles.
22. Tim McCormick C 22 6'11'' 245 C+ C- D+ B- C+ B
22. Tim McCormick C 22 6'11'' 245 C+ C- C- B C+ C
Overall: +2, -1 potential
Another disappointing TC north of the border.
23. Cohn Irish PG 20 5'9'' 190 C C+ B B- D+ A
23. Cohn Irish PG 20 5'9'' 190 C C+ B+ B D+ B
Overall: +2, -1 potential
Meh, backup PG here he comes. Not bad for this late in the draft.
24. Cody Kidd PG 22 6'3'' 210 C C C+ C C- A
24. Cody Kidd PG 22 6'3'' 210 C C B C+ C- B
Overall: +3, -1 potential
Big jump for Kidd, but he is going to need to continue to improve if he wants to contribute.

26. Daniel Boroniec SF 20 6'9'' 247 C+ C C+ B- C B
26. Daniel Boroniec SF 20 6'9'' 247 C+ C C+ B- C B
Overall: +/- 0
Nothing happened. Guy isn't very good.
27. Mark Ham PF 20 6'9'' 227 C+ C+ C C+ C B
27. Mark Ham PF 20 6'9'' 227 C+ C+ C B- C B
Overall: +1
Career backup looking grades, but he got better.
28. Broderick Van Exel PF 22 6'11'' 233 C+ C D+ B+ C C
28. Broderick Van Exel PF 22 6'11'' 233 C+ C D+ B+ C+ D
Overall: +1, -1 potential
Bumped up his rebounding, but D potential? Woof.
29. Alan Camby SG 20 6'5'' 227 C+ C+ C+ C+ D+ C
29. Alan Camby SG 20 6'5'' 227 B- C+ C+ C+ D+ B
Overall: +1, +1 potential
Pretty good results for the last pick of the draft, but he still has a long way to go to become a useful player.
Total Results: +37
