Sports Illustrated Ranks Coby White No. 5 NBA Draft Prospect
Posted Jun 5, 2019
5. Coby White, G, North Carolina, Freshman: White’s combination size, athleticism and potential as a pull-up scorer oozes upside. He continues to evolve as a decision-maker and probably won’t be ready for full-time point guard duty, but there’s clearly room for combo shooters in his mold to be successful. There’s a lot to like about him as an option in the lottery.
