7. Minnesota Timberwolves: Jonathan Isaac, SF, Florida State
Age: 19 (October 3, 1997
Size: 6-foot-10, 210 pounds
Isaac was hardly the go-to offensive option at Florida State (12.0 points per game with a 20.3 usage percentage), but the fact that he's 6-foot-11, has a 7-foot-1 wingspan and is comfortable playing on the perimeter is enough to make NBA scouts drool.
Moreover, a landing spot in Minnesota, where there are already a number of stars, would allow Isaac to develop offensively without much pressure while focusing on making a defensive impact. Among DraftExpress' Top 100 prospects, he was one of just four players to rank in the Top 20 in both steals (1.7) and blocks (2.2) per 40 minutes pace adjusted. (Getty)
