D720 2015 Draft Steals


This article is meant to show the steals from the Draft 4 years ago.This is mainly based on the real life NBA as D720 is basically a reflection of the NBA.Hope you enjoy reading this and feel free to leave suggestions or any article ideas below.


1.Devin Booker


D720 Draft Position-13 (By Portland)


NBA Draft Position-13(By Phoenix)


D720 2018-2019 Season Stats


23.2 ppg on 44.2% FG and 39.2% 3 pt on 8.8 3 pt attempts per game

35 mpg



Just like how Booker is putting up stats on an awful Suns team irl ,Booker has been balling out on the lottery bound Bulls in D720.


Booker would have certainly welcomed the addition of KAT to the Bulls which pairs 2 budding stars together .


At the 13th spot you rarely get a player who can put up these stats at the age of 22.


He has also scored 70 points in a game at the age of 20


He made the All Star team in D720 and imo if the Suns weren’t horrible ,he would have made the All Star team in the NBA too.





2.Kristaps Porzingis


D720 Draft Position-8(By Memphis)


NBA Draft Position-4(By New York )


NBA 2017-2018 Season Stats


22.7 ppg on 43.9 % FG and 39.5% 3 pt on 4.8 3 pt attempts

79.3% FT

6.6 rpg

1.2 apg

0.8 spg

2.4 bpg

32.4 mpg



The Unicorn had slipped down 4 spots in D720 compared to his real life Draft position probably because he was picked by the Knicks.


Porzingis still managed to shine on a terrible Knicks organization.


At 7 feet 3 inches he is still a good shooter and is a great shot blocker too.


His rebounding numbers should be higher for his height though.


Porzingis was balling out before his ACL tear but as we all know an ACL tear can be a career ruining injury.


Porzingis being traded to the Mavs is a good situation for him as he gets to play with a fellow Euro sensation,Luka Doncic.


In D720,Porzingod is surrounded by great players in Portland like CP3,Demar and draymond


They still remain a contender without Kristaps which is due to the amazing GM skills shown by Theodore Duncan


Imo Porzingis will come back strongly after his return from injury and form a great duo with Doncic and in D720 he will help Portland win a championship


Good Drafting Logan Hough



3.Josh Richardson


D720 Draft Position-32 (By Golden State )


NBA Draft Position-40(By Miami)


D720 2018-2019 Season Stats


12.7 ppg on 43.8% FG and 34.9% 3 pt on 4.2 3 pt attempts per game

66% FT

2.8 rpg

2.1 apg

0.5 spg

0.3 bpg

30.45 mpg


NBA 2018-2019 Season Stats


17.1 ppg on 42.1 % FG and 37.1% 3 pt on 6.5 3 pt attempts

85.6% FT

3.6 rpg

4.0 apg

1.0 spg

0.5 bpg

34.8 mpg



Imo Josh Richardson is one of the most underrated players in the NBA.


He is an elite 2-way player who fits the mould of a 3 & D wing.


He is great on defence and can switch across 3 positions


I think his accurate player comparison is Jimmy Butler without the chemistry wrecking skills


In D720,he is on the rebuilding Bucks and due to their influx of guards he hasn’t really had the opportunity to prove himself a lot.


GSW took him 8 spots above his real life draft position but this is still a steal as Richardson is an amazing player for being picked at 32.



4.Montrezl Harrell


D720 Draft Position-22 (By Memphis)


NBA Draft Position-32(By Houston)


D720 2018-2019 Season Stats


13.4 ppg on 46.8% FG and 36.5% 3 pt on 3.3 3 pt attempts per game

66.5% FT

0.8 spg

62.5% FT

6.6 rpg

1.8 apg

0.9 spg

1.3 bpg

26.4 mpg


Trezz is one of the best bench players and a SMOTY candidate.


His energy and intensity sets him apart.


He has flourished on the Clippers whose depth is their strength and hence have managed to be the 7th seed even after trading away their best player.


Logan Hough might have reached by drafting him 10 spots before his NBA draft spot but it was a steal so great drafting man.


5.Cedi Osman


D720 Draft Position-51 (By Chicago)


NBA Draft Position-31(By Minnesota)


D720 2018-2019 Season Stats


6.1 ppg on 39.0% FG and 30.4% 3 pt on 2.3 3 pt attempts per game

77.1% FT

4.7 rpg

3.4 apg

0.8 spg

0.2 bpg

31.5 mpg


This can be considered as a draft day steal as he picked Osman a whopping 20 spots below his NBA draft spot.


Good job Paul Pierce


Cedi may not have star potential but he is a great forward to have off the bench.


He has been playing well for the Cavs but that hasn’t translated in D720


At slot 51,getting a player like Cedi is very rare which puts him in as a steal in the 2015 Draft

[Paul Pierce]

Wish I kept Osman long enough t for him to come over from flourish

[Nino Brown]

I don’t know if Jrich could be considered an elite two way player. He’s extremely inefficient, and his defense has regressed because of his newfound focus on offense. I think he can become an elite two way player, but he’s not there yet.

where'd you get your facts that JRich is inefficient? He's carrying the Heat this year.

Seems like PP never signed him to his rookie contract and Pete picked him up in FA

[Theodore Duncan]

When I saw the thread name and myself tagged, I thought this would be about Landry Shamet :D
Edit.. aah It's about 2015

He hasnt been inefficient at all and has been the best player on the heat this year and has vastly improved on offence.He is definitely a two way stud

to be fair, he's an inconsistent piece of shit. We expected too much from him. He still needs to grow and develop his play.

Lol it says 2015,anyways i plan on making a draft steals and busts for every year so if i do Shamet will probably be there

[Paul Pierce]

FYI when you do the 17 draft, I drafted Kuzma and josh Hart. Both of them say Boston and Portland drafted them but it was me.

Yeah..I had also Kuzma in top of my draft board at that time, although I didn't know much of him.

I gave up the pick to get rid of Varejao's contract as part of plan to open 2 max slots. In the end I did get Derozan, but with rest of the cap space I only got Jeff Teague or something.

He shoots 42% from the field, and they have a losing record in the Eastern conference.

Y’all can’t watch Basketball, particularly the heat, shooting 42% from the field is not efficient, and his defense is definitively worse this year than last because he’s putting so much effort into offense. By his own account he needs to get back to where he was defensively. By the eye test he’s worse defensively, and by advanced metrics he’s worse defensively, this isn’t a debate lol.
