Forward - Height: 6' 8" | Weight: 220 lb | Age: 18

Jonathan Kuminga plays for the NBA G-League Ignite alongside Jalen Green. He is a versatile forward who is an active rebounder and is an ambidextrous finisher near the rim.

He has a tight handle and makes massive strides while running to the rim. He is supremely athletic and has elite defensive potential if committed to stopping a player. Kuminga has been compared with Jeff Green, and many believe he could crack the top-five picks in the 2021 NBA Draft.


#6 Ayo Dosunmu

Guard - Height: 6' 5" | Weight: 200 lb | Age: 21

Although not the most highly scouted prospect, Ayo Dosunmu is expected to crack the top 20 in the first round of the 2021 NBA Draft. He is a great ball-handler with incredible defence and hustle.

He sets the tone of the game and controls the offensive tempo. He uses his size and strength to power defenders and create space and pushes the ball in transition to attack the rim or kick out a pass. Dosunmu is a versatile on-ball defender who has had multiple games playing lockdown defense while also averaging 20 points per game.


#7 Davion Mitchell

Guard - Height: 6' 2" | Weight: 205 lb | Age: 22

Davion Mitchell is a highly competitive player who made strides in his offensive game to eventually end up as a highly scouted prospect. He is expected to be a top-ten pick in the first round of the 2021 NBA Draft.

Mitchell is an elite defender both on and off the ball, who uses his hustle and speed. He reminds people of Jrue Holiday in defense and Donovan Mitchell in offense. He improved his three-point shooting from 31% in his first two years in college to 44% in his junior year.

Davion Mitchell is also a dynamic shot creator who has the ability to finish near the rim with either hand.
