Nick brings Rucker back on the show to talk about Rucker's recent article on Barcelona's James Nnaji. They start out with a discussion about the nature of drafting for potential and how it applies to the 18-year-old center. Then, they break down Nnaji's game in detail, starting with his defense--especially his shot-blocking prowess and mobility. After that, they talk about his offensive game, including his absurd efficiency around the basket as well as some potential areas for growth. Finally, they wrap up with a discussion of how his game might develop, and which teams might be looking Nnaji's way on draft night.
