Total Non-Potential Grade Gains (+106; +63 First Round and and +43 Second Round)
Total Potential Gains (-1; +3 First Round and -4 Second Round)

Round 1

1. Kings (via Suns) - Larry Johnson SF/PF 6'6 250 21
B+ B- C- C+ B   B
A- B+ C- C+ B+ B (+4)

Not the best TC from this class but a very nice TC for Grandmama improves some already nice scoring grades with improved rebounding as well. A very nice looking F prospect

2. Kings (via Pacers) - Matthew Lockhart SG 6'4" 190 21
B- B- C B+ C+ B
B- B+ C A- C+ B (+3)

+2 outside shooting and +1 D makes Lockhart look like a nice 3 and D contributor early

3. Sixers - Steve Smith SG 6'7'' 200 21
B- B C- C+ C- B
B- B C   B- C- B (+2)

Not a great TC for the 3rd pick, will have Fason questioning why he didn't grab one of the PGs at this spot

4. Wolves - Dump Silvestri PG 6'2" 175 17
C+ B- C+ C+ C A
C+ B+ B- B- C- A (+3)

Nice TC for Dump with +4 in the right spots and a -1 at rebounding. Ayyoe should be happy with this

5. Nuggets - Terrell Brandon PG 5'11'' 180 20
B- B  C+ C+ D+ B
B- A- B- B   D+ A (+5, +1 potential)

Great TC for Banks PG of the future. Looks like he may have the edge over Dump as the best PG in this class

6. Grizzlies - Dikembe Mutombo C 7'2" 285 24
B C- D+ A- A- C
B C- D+ A- A   B (+1, +1 potential)

Not a large gain but the +1 going to improving that rebounding and the potential increase Mount Mutombo looks like a great defensive big man for the Grizz

7. Bulls (via Spurs) - LaBradford Smith PG/SG 6'3 200 21
B- B- C B- C- B
B+ B  C B  C  A (+5, +1 potential)

Fantastic TC for Smith, it's easy to see why Trofie would want to draft him 3 times and Bruns will be very happy with this

8. Nuggets (via Cavs) - Stacey Augmon SG/SF 6'8" 205
B C   C  B+ C+ A
B C+ C- B+ C+ A (even)

Not much going on with the Plastic Man

9. Wolves (via Warriors) - Billy Owens SF/PF 6'8 220 21
B C C C+ B- A
B C C B+ B- A (+3)

Not a bad TC with a full letter grade improvement on D for Owens

10. Magic - Kevin Brooks SF 6'6'' 200 21
B  C+ C- B- C B
B+ B- C  B- C B (+3)

+3 for JHB give Brooks a nice set of scoring grades

11. Sixers (via Knicks) - Kenny Anderson PG 6' 170 20
C+ B- C+ C+ C A
C+ B- C+ B   C A (+2)

+2 to defense is nice and that C+ shouldn't be anything to worry about as handling and passing are the fastest growing for PGs

12. Raptors - Doug Smith PF/C 6'10 245
B  C D   C+ B B
B- C D+ C+ B B (even)

Not much going on here for Pete

13. Sixers (via Hawks) - Rick Fox SF 6'7'' 230 21
C+ C+ C C+ C+ A
C+ B-  C C+ C+ A (+1)

Not much here but at least the +1 is an area of use

14. Wolves (via Bulls) - Dale Davis PF 6'11" 230 21
C D   D+ B   B+ B
C D+ D   B+ B+ B (+1)

15. Hornets - Alvaro Teheran C 7'2'' 300 19
B- C- D- C+ C+ A
B- C- D- B- C+ A (+1)

Only +1 but to defense for the teenage big

16. Sixers (via Blazers) - Stanley Roberts C 7'0'' 285 20
C D- D+ B+ B   A
C D- D+ A- B+ A (+1)

Another unimpressive TC for the Sixers in the 1st

17. Grizzlies (via Kings) - John Turner SF 6'6'' 245 23
B  C C C+ B A
B+ C C B- B B (+2, -1 potential)

Mr Turner sees an improvement to inside scoring and D but takes a hit on his potential

18. Jazz - George Ackles PF 6'9'' 275 19
B- C D B- B- A
B  C D- A- B- A (+3)

Ackles with a +3 on defense gives SPL an interesting prospect

19. Warriors (via Rockets) - Rodney Monroe SG 22 6'3'' 185
B C+ C- B- C- A
B B- C   B  C- A (+3)

Taco gets +3 in the right spots for this small SG prospect

20. Grizzlies (via Bobcats) - Richard Dumas SF 21 6'7'' 200
B C+ C- B- C+ B
B C   C- B  C+ B (even)

Rebounding upgrade but took a hit on outside shooting, not what Druce would be hoping to see

21. Suns (via Celtics) - Anthony Jones PF 6'8'' 290 21
B- C+ C B  B- B
B- B- C A- C+ B (+2)

With the hit to rebounding and the improvements in outside shooting and defense Jones looks like he could make a nice SF prospect for Ank to play the 3 spot between Stack and JO

22. Magic (via Bullets) - Myron Brown PG 21 6'3'' 180
C B   B  C+ D   A
C A- B+ C+ D+ A (+4)

Nice +4 for this scoring PG for JHB

23. Sixers (via Bucks) - Anthony Avent PF 6'9'' 240 22
B   C-D  B-  B  B
B+ C D+ B+ B+ B (+6)

Avert has the best TC for all the rookies and sees improvement across the board. Nice find in the late 1st for Fason

24. Hawks (via Sonics) - Luc Longley C 7'2'' 265 22
B- C- D+ B- C+ A
C+ C- D+ B+ B- A (+2)

While taking a hit at inside scoring the +2 defense and +1 rebounding make Longley appear he could grow into a nice defensive big man

25. Bullets (via Nets) - Mark Macon 21 PG/SG 6'4 185
B- B- C  C+ C- B
C+ B  C- B- C- B (even)

Improvements at outside shooting and defending with a hit at handling make Macon look like he will never be a PG

26. Bullets (via Heat) - Eric Murdock PG 6'1 190 22
C+ C+ C+ B  D+ A
C+ C+ B- B+ D+ A (+2)

The best TC of the Bullets group of late 1sts

27. Bullets (via Lakers) - Rich King C 7'2 260 21
B D+ D+ B B- B
B D+ D+ B B- B (even)

Not a single change, nothing going on here

28. Thunder - Shaun Vandiver SF 6'8'' 210 22
B   C C B- C+ B
B+ C C B  C+ B (+2)

Bumps in inside scoring and defense for GBG. Nothing special here


29. Raptors (via Clippers) - Greg Anthony PG 6'0'' 176 23
B  C  B  C+ D+ B
B- C B+ B   D+ A (+2, +1 potential)

Minus 1 at inside scoring but plus 3 in the right areas for a pass first PG along with a bump in potential gives Pete a nice prospect to close the 1st

Round 2

1. Bobcats (via Sixers) - Mike Iuzzolino PG 5'10'' 175 23
C+ B- B   B- D+ B
C+ B- B+ B- D+ B (+1)

C+ C C- B  C+ B
C+ C C  A- C+ B (+3)

B   D+ C- B+ C+ A
B+ D+ D+ A- B   A (+3)

B- C C C+ C+ A
B- C C C+ C+ A (even)

5. Grizzlies - Doug Overton PG 6'3'' 190 21
B-  B- B- C   D+ A

[Face-in]

Passing on Sim Dump will haunt me worse than not extending Stanley Robinson.

[SugarShaun]

Updated with everything finished and with comments

My first time at this and still learning so excuse the comments, they aren't very good

[MistleTacoe]

Pretty happy with my first draft

[SugarShaun]

Just noticed I messed up on one. His rebounding went up too. I keep trying to edit my post unsuccessfully because I'm on my phone not the computer so here's a post with what it should say. Sorry Fason

16. Sixers (via Blazers) - Stanley Roberts C 7'0'' 285 20
C D- D+ B+ B A
C D- D+ A- B+ A (+2)

Upgrades to D and rebounding give Roberts some nice grades for a defensive big prospect

Brooks is a +5 with a move to SG. Score.
