获胜候选人

So, through the leagues long history of hits and whiffs through the draft, it's pretty clear that finding stars out of college is just as much art as it is science. It goes without saying that with such limited rosters and entry opoortunities into the league that there might be players that never get to really show what they could become.

I'm talking about the undrafted masses. Yes, some of them get a few workouts, g-league signings, or foreign league opportunities, but there are obviously so many good players we will never get to see or know post college.

And the draft bias makes this worse. Player's like Meyes Leonard, for example, get chance after chance to prove that they will develop into greatness, while an undrafted player likely has a hard time getting anyone to kick the tires past training camp.

But there is always hope. Teams will kick some tires and invite a number of undrafted players into their gyms to take a closer look. Its a real longshot for those guys but I love a good cinderella story.

So, with that in mind, here a top 100 prospects list.

Are there any player's past the top 50, or possibly not even on this list, ie true longshot hopefuls that you would like to see get a chance with Portland?
