15. The Miami Heat select Zach Edey

Edey might be the hardest prospect to gauge in this draft, but putting him with a defensive frontcourt partner like Bam Adebayo makes sense and if any coach can figure out how to use Edey, it’s Spoelstra. Edey may not be a star in the NBA, but it does seem like he’ll at least be able to give teams an efficient 25 minutes a game, block a few shots and be very difficult to stop in the paint. With Adebayo, Edey wouldn’t have to step away from the rim as much, which would allow him to focus on dominating the paint.
