Who Stood Out on Day 2 of the NBA Draft Combine​

Coleman Hawkins, Illinois​

Hawkins is a unique player, a rail-thin frontcourt player who’s better as a distributor than scorer. How that skill set translates to a setting like this is always an open question, but Hawkins had a productive day Thursday that showcased how he could add value to an NBA organization. He dished out seven assists without a turnover, had nine rebounds and flashed his shot-blocking instincts with three rejections on the day. His fit may end up being heavily team-dependent, but if he lands in the right situation he could end up being a valuable commodity.

Well, if RayJ does become an Illini, he's got a lot of ground to make up on his path to becoming my favorite Illini. I'm sure he's very concerned with that...

But in all seriousness, it's hard to not feel a growing disparity of expectations in this new world of collegiate free agency.

I think CH displayed his full strength (probably weakness, too) in this 2nd game. It is very interesting to see whether he comes back.
