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
89.1% FT
4.2 rpg
6.6 apg
1.1 spg
0.2 bpg
31.9 mpg
NBA 2018-2019 Season Stats
24.6 ppg on 45.4 % FG and 32.1% 3 pt on 6.4 3 pt attempts
86.2% FT
4 rpg
6.7 apg
0.9 spg
0.2 bpg
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
5.0 rpg
1.6 apg
0.8 spg
0.9 bpg
23.5 mpg
NBA 2018-2019 Season Stats
16.2 ppg on 62.1 % FG and 7.7% 3 pt on 0.2 3 pt attempts

1.3 bpg

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
82.6% FT
3.0 rpg
0.8 apg
0.3 spg
0.1 bpg
15.6 mpg
NBA 2018-2019 Season Stats
13.1 ppg on 43.7 % FG and 35.3% 3 pt on 4.8 3 pt attempts
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
