No. 8 Dylan Mingo, PG. 6-foot-5. NBA comparison: Tyreke Evans. Mingo is dynamic when the ball is in his hands. He can score in transition and in the half court, where he attacks defenders off the dribble and knows how to maneuver ball screens. No. 9 Qayden Samuels, SF. NBA comparison: James Harden. Samuels plays with a long, lefty frame. (ESPN.com)
