2. Justin Edwards

He is an upside guy who Miami should look at. Justin Edwards has a lot of tools that jump off the page. Edwards is very athletic, throws down mean dunks, and only needs a bit of space to attack the rim. Edwards makes plays happen even when the ball isn't in his hands.

Edwards is one of the best off-ball cutters in the draft who does a good job cutting back doors to get a dunk. Edwards is also a willing passer who looks to make the right play.

There's also a ton of potential on defense. Edwards plays defense with energy and reads passing lanes well. At 6-foot-8, he can guard multiple positions on the perimeter. Edwards needs to work on his ball handling and shooting. Not enough consistency in either. If Edwards can improve one of those areas, he could be a steal in the draft.
