Elie Okobo has been an extremely late and an extremely fast riser up draft boards lately. A lot of that has to do with his ceiling as some scouts believe he could end up being the best 1 in the entire draft. He’s certainly a score-first point guard which could present problems for the Bucks, but his skill level is undeniable. The way he can shoot off the dribble, hit step-backs and hit spot-ups is incredible. He’s not the most athletic guy in the world, but is a sneaky good jumper. His defensive consistency will need to be addressed.

In the link below, you can find his strengths, weaknesses, comparison and his fit on the Bucks:

Role on the Bucks:

  • Scoring spark-plug off the bench.
  • Potential long-term replacement for Eric Bledsoe.
  • Source of frustration for fans due to inconsistent play

Projected draft range (compilation of mock drafts from around the internet):
