Pick Analysis. Auburn. Isaac Okoro. player. 66. Scouting Report. 10. Small Forward

10. Phoenix Suns – Isaac Okoro, Forward, Auburn

The Suns need high-effort forwards that can compete on the defensive end. While Devin Booker and DeAndre Ayton both look really, really good, Okoro very well could be the third piece that they are searching for. While he does not have a shot currently, his defensive impact would be profound.

Isaac Okoro is the best perimeter defender in this draft class. His ability to affect and tip passes is very good, and he is great at scoring at the rim and facilitating an offense as well. Should Okoro be able to improve upon his deep-range jumper (even if it is just a spot-up), he could become the best player out of this draft class.

Okoro will not be a bust simply because of his defense. He gives high effort on every play and would fit in perfectly to the Suns’ current roster.
