Who Are the Top Big Men in the NBA Draft?

The NBA Draft is closing in fast, and teams are scrambling to figure out every possible scenario, every possible pick they could make. Similarly, the sports writers of the world are trying to determine which players will be selected when. In the NBA, getting the right player can change the course of your franchise for the next 15 years. Needless to say, it’s a big deal.

Where to go to get an idea who’s going to go first and who’s going to go 21st? SportsIllustrated.com, of course. In typical Sports Illustrated fashion, they have a slide show of their top big men draft prospects. They give you their top 20, and we’re not going to ruin it too badly for you, but the name Beasley appears right near the top of the list. But the question remains: Will Beasley be a inside scorer in the NBA, given that he’s actually only 6-8. In college that might fly for an inside presence… but in today’s NBA game, he might struggle.
