Missi still has a ton of room for growth after his one year at Baylor, but the glimpses that he showed defending the block and running the floor well in transition scream upside as a rim-running big in the NBA at 7 feet.

Reeves is a bucket-getter and was the leader on a Kentucky team that was loaded with a ton of young talent. He's clutch in high-pressure situations (averaging 45% from 3-point range) and even though he's 23, Reeves has found ways to improve and add to his game every year.
