17. Boston Celtics (from Brooklyn): Tyler Ennis, PG, Syracuse

Tyler Ennis was a floor general at Syracuse thanks to his clutch play (see: above video) and ability to run the point, and the Celtics won't let him slide past them.

Rajon Rondo is still wearing green, but nobody knows how long he'll stay in Boston. I don't think Danny Ainge even knows. Ennis is a great insurance policy.

Ennis intriguing to Denver

DeanOnDraft is super high on Ennis. Really hope he's successful because I need more rooting interests in the NBA.

Ennis, meanwhile, is a traditional point guard. He can be put into pick-and-roll situations right now, because of his poise, his vision, and his ability to make the right decision the vast majority of the time. Ennis led the ACC in assists and steals, but because he played in Syracuse's trademark 2-3 zone, its main defense, he has to prove he can defend in the mostly man-to-man NBA.

"Teams question it," Ennis said. "To be able to play in the 2-3, you have to be able to defend somewhat. But to come in here and show you can defend against another top guy is a way to take that out of the picture. I want to come into every workout and show that I can defend."

Like Draft Express, SB Nation also has the Hornets looking to fill their backup point guard needs with the 24th pick. They have Charlotte taking Syracuse PG Tyler Ennis. Ennis played very well while he was at Syracuse but this will be a fairly dangerous pick as Syracuse isn't the best at producing NBA level talent. However at 24 and considering Ennis won't be asked to start, it won't be a huge risk.

At 19 years old, Tyler Ennis has emerged as the greatest available option to replace Bledsoe. Proving to be a dependable point guard for the almost-perfect Syracuse Orange and logging 35.7 minutes and 12.9 points per game on 41/36/76 shooting, he’s an above-average option to take on said Dragic’s rest minutes and provide a solid effort off the bench.
Often regarded as an amazing glue guy, he’d fit right into the great chemistry they’ve got in Phoenix.

17. Boston Celtics (from Brooklyn Nets): Tyler Ennis, PG, Syracuse
It remains to be seen what the future holds for Rajon Rondo in Boston, but even if he sticks around for the long haul, Syracuse's Tyler Ennis would be an excellent backup option for the Celtics.

Tyler Ennis, a 6’2″ point guard who played a single season for Syracuse, is considered one of the top play-making point guards in the draft, both as a distributor on offense and a pick-pocket on defense. Some draft experts have compared him to Damian Lillard, Portland’s talented young floor general. In speaking with the media, Ennis talked about the high level of competition during the workout, the fact that he wasn’t too familiar with Denver before this visit, and how his pre-draft workouts have gone to this point:

Another fine effort from our friends at Bleacher Report. I did read Axe's article and I figured it would lead to something like this. JB speaks his mind for sure.

And finally, Tyler Ennis. The odds of the Sixers taking a poor-shooting point guard from Syracuse for the second year in a row are -- and this is a technical Vegas gambling term -- freezing butt, but Ennis is getting close to BPA for the spot, so we're placating the BPA Brigade And Friends by shuffling him in the deck here. Ennis himself just got assigned to the Toronto Raptors at #20 in the Highly Fake LB Mock Draft.

20. Toronto Raptors: Tyler Ennis, PG, Syracuse. Two general managers told FOX Sports 1 that a team would reach too high for the young point guard. He could go higher, but even here could be too early. With Kyle Lowry possibly leaving as a free agent, the unflappable Ennis – the best game manager in this draft – would make sense. In his one season at Syracuse, Ennis played with the maturity of a senior (see: 3.2 assist-to-turnover ratio.) Another year at Syracuse would have helped his development.

12. Orlando Magic: Tyler Ennis, PG, Fr., Syracuse. The adjectives used to describe the young point guard are mature, wise beyond his years, and intelligent. The Magic can use Ennis to back up Jameer Nelson or have him take over should they end up trading Nelson.

If that’s the case, then Ford predicts that Shabazz Napier would be the Bulls top choice for one of their two picks, as he holds a slight edge over Syracuse’s Tyler Ennis.
