Tony Bradley
We took a look at Kentucky’s center, now let’s check out North Carolina’s. At 6-foot-10 with a huge 7-foot-4 wingspan, Tony Bradley is bigger than Adebayo, but he’s not as efficient around the rim, and not nearly as explosive. At 19 years old, he’s a project, for sure. One who may not see a ton of playing time his first few years in the NBA and might need some seasoning in the D-League.
Bradley’s best-case scenario is that he’s able to leverage his shooting touch and develop a mid-range game, while learning to use his body better when protecting the rim. He’s very raw in both of those aspects right now.
Draft Express currently has Bradley as a late second-round pick, so this isn’t someone the Heat would be selecting in the first round. Miami doesn’t have a second-round pick this year, but if they’re able to acquire one, Bradley could be an option. Or if he’s not drafted, perhaps someone who could warrant a training camp or summer league tryout.
