‘Limited Upside’ NBA Podcast: Jahlil Okafor is underrated now

Mike and Ben preview the 2015 NBA Draft, which promises to be full of fireworks. We both agree that Jahlil Okafor has been nitpicked far too much.

The 2015 NBA Draft is fast approaching, so it’s time to go deep on a very intriguing class. Among the big questions we discussed:

  • Have we nitpicked Jahlil Okafor too much? We both think so.
  • Mike is scared of Kristaps Porzingis, and we promise it’s for a basketball reason.
  • How good is D’Angelo Russell? Mike thinks he’s really good. Ben’s a little worried and thinks Emmanuel Mudiay might be better.
  • We both hope Justise Winslow goes to the right team, because if he’s expected to be a savior, we’re worried.
  • Why we’re both excited for the Mario Hezonja era to get underway.
  • All those teams picking late in the lottery -- Detroit, Miami, Charlotte, Indiana -- really shouldn’t trade their first-round picks.
  • Who are some of our sleepers?

We also encourage you to read Kevin O’Connor’s draft guide, which is amazingly comprehensive. Here’s a list of Kevin’s top 60 prospects.
