50. Minnesota Timberwolves – Hugo Besson (New Zealand Breakers)

Besson is a 6’6 combo guard from France that is a solid playmaker with long-term potential. He’s also a great “stash” candidate for a Timberwolves team that already has several 2nd round picks. He’s one of the better international prospects to take a flyer on and see what happens down the road.

51. Golden State Warriors – Dominick Barlow (Overtime Elite)

Not too long ago, Barlow was a two-star prospect that was just starting to get attention from high-major college programs. Then he blew up to the point where he got an offer from the new Overtime Elite and now has a chance to get drafted. He’s a 6’9 power forward with great athleticism and two-way potential and with more development could thrive in a couple of years. The Warriors can afford to take a shot on him late in the draft and in their system, may become a hidden gem.

52. New Orleans Pelicans – Jabari Walker (Colorado Buffaloes)

After a breakout sophomore campaign that saw him nearly average a double-double, Walker is still a fairly young prospect whose game can develop into an all-around offensive threat. New Orleans’ bench could use some revamping and additional frontcourt help to make sure Zion Williamson doesn’t get overworked next year.
