25) Orlando Magic (from Toronto)-Ike Anigbogu, Forward/Center, UCLA, Freshman

Stats per game 2016-17: 13.0 MIN/4.7 PTS/56 eFG%/4.0 REB/0.2 AST/1.2 BLK/0.2 STL

Measurements from 2017 NBA Draft Combine: 6’9 ¾” height with shoes/252 lbs. /7’6 ¼ wingspan/9’2 ½” standing reach

The Magic could use Anigbogu’s defense as a player to develop alongside their growing core. He’s quick enough to stay with guards on the perimeter and uses his elite length and jumping ability to protect the paint. Offensively, his game is limited to being a screener that scores on lobs and put-backs. Anigbogu would give Orlando an athletic frontcourt with Aaron Gordon.

26) Portland Trail Blazers (from Cleveland)- Semi Ojeleye, Guard, SMU, Junior

Stats per game 2016-17: 34.1 MIN/19.0 PTS/57 eFG%/42.4 3PT%/6.9 REB/1.5 AST/0.4 STL/0.4 BLK

Measurements from 2017 NBA Draft Combine: 6’6 ¾” height with shoes/241 lbs. /6’9 ¾” wingspan/8’6” standing reach

Portland uses their final first round pick on another versatile player. Ojeleye is strong for his height which helps him battle with bigs in the post. He can hold his own on the perimeter when engaged on defense. His ability to finish through contact and knock down jumpers makes him an intriguing player that can contribute right away.
