Bennett Stirtz, Iowa
Stirtz is a late-bloomer who possesses a real feel for the game and is highly skilled.
The 6-4 guard, who started his career at the Division II Northwest Missouri State before moving on to Drake and Iowa, had one heck of a collegiate career. While known for his deep range and sharpshooting, the 22-year-old is a three-level scorer and very good in pick-and-rolls.
Stirtz has impressed in the early going of the NBA Draft Combine.
