I'm surprised that it's so heavily slanted toward Battle. I'm with you, though, any value he has is tied to his ability to be a lock down defender, which he may have the potential to become. If he is really good defensively and continues to handle the ball OK, then he could be of value to someone. We know he's a hard-worker and smart kid, so that plays in his favor as well. If he's not a really good defender, however, I'm not really sure it works b/c I don't think he'll be able to get to the rim at that level with any sort of consistency.

Brissett to me is at least in the same neighborhood as a prospect and I could see an argument for him being a better prospect. I mean, he has athleticism and size and he can play strong at times. He doesn't have super quick feet but he can move his feet and potentially defend and rebound OK. He's also shown the ability to shoot at times (his ACC numbers in 17-18 were really solid from three -- like 38% or something).

So I feel like there is something to work with but he's much rawer in terms of his skills.

Either way, however, it's tough to imagine either getting drafted.
