5 Most underrated prospects in NBA Draft 2019

#4 Dylan Windler (21.3 PPG, 10.8 RPG)

Dylan Windler is a 6'8 forward from Belmont that put up a monster senior season. He went off for 35 points and 11 rebounds against Maryland in the NCAA, shooting 11 of 23 from the floor. He isn't as well known as some of the other forwards in the 2019 draft but is definitely an excellent option for the first round for any team.

Windler shows off the three-point shooting that at his size, NBA teams covet. He made 100 threes as a senior, shooting 43% from the three, which for his size, are extremely strong numbers. Windler is particularly good at catch and shoot threes, and can come off screens to immediately be a threat, forcing the defense to compensate. For someone who spends a lot of time on the perimeter, his rebounding numbers are terrific, displaying his hustle and energy.

Dylan also has a high basketball IQ and can create shots for his teammates as well. He only recorded 2 turnovers a game despite being one of the primary options for Belmont. He can also shoot the free throw extremely well, at over 87% last year. Windler thus becomes an excellent option for the second unit of any team, as a methodical player that spaces the floor, and can be a threat from the perimeter, or from inside.

He does need to put on some weight, however, and become a bit stronger to be able to contest for rebounds in the paint. Overall, he has tremendous appeal as a first rounder, and his experience playing for a fast-paced offense like Belmont could aid him in fitting in with an NBA team right away.
