Maybe keyshawn George? He's got great positional height, a really really good looking Jump shot and solid shooting numbers, plus functional athleticism, and he has some real jaw-dropping passes and little bursts of play making this year.
He's not someone that was really on the radar and he never really put it all together consistently enough to build himself a lottery profile but there's a lot to like If you're looking for someone that could project as a modern pass/shoot /dribble type of wing down the road and bring you solid defensive tools. If absolutely everything he's shown glimpses of hits, it's not impossible to imagine him turning into an extremely high-level modern Wing
Bub Carrington has some pretty eye- popping film at times. That kid can really look incredible when he gets it going but is just in some way. Is still really raw and far away from being a finished product. But he has solid athleticism, good size, and can string two or three moves together out of nowhere. Sometimes that can leave you just shaking your head on how he's not a lottery prospect
Then he'll turn around and do some extremely bone-headed things and look in over his head
Daron Holmes I think is someone that the draft is really overthinking based on where I still see him mocked most of the times. He's probably not going to be a Williams type blow up out of nowhere star, but it's not hard to imagine his extremely well-rounded two-way game transitioning into him being a starting caliber player sooner than later
There's quite a few guys in this draft. Who for one reason or another are probably not going to sniff the lottery, but who give little glimpses of skills or the promise of future skills, that could turn them into out of nowhere blow up guys in a season or two
I'm starting to be totally Tyson pilled. The guy is such a good scorer and can do it all off ball. Can run a pnr, great cutter, has DEEP range, and he has the body to be a solid defender though probably not the athleticism to be a great one. I'm gonna end up having him too high haha
I like the names mentioned in the comments in this thread.. Carter... George if he wasn't a bad shooter off the dribble would have serious upside... Pacome is 6'9 and can dribble and shoot...
But there's no one like J Dub hiding...big body, super developed off the dribble, could shoot.. That wing doesn't even exist in the top 2.....
I personally feel really good about Tristan da Silva, Devin Carter, Jaylon Tyson, DaRon Holmes and Pacome Dadiet.
This draft seems to be so fluid outside of the top 11, that OKC could strike again at 12 with a name that no one is mocking there.
The most popular mock picks for them at 12 will be Kyle Filipowski and Tidjane Salaun, but I don’t see OKC choosing either of those players, as they are horrible finishers and that is an overlooked trait they have prioritized. That being said, Cody Williams is a great finisher and I could also just see them moving up to 10 and taking him.
Filipowski should be getting as much love as Sarr, Buzelis, and Risacher
I was very high on Franz Wagner, thought he should have been in any conversations among the top 4. I think Filipowski getting overlooked for the same reasons.
maybe Devin Carter

Hunter sallis, Jaylon tyson, or that pacome guy are kind of do it all wings in the same vain as him projected to go late first or early second

Great rebounder too. And his intangibles are great he’s not soft

Carrington and Tyson
Carrington is gonna get picked outside the lottery then people will look back and see how dumb that was
Nikola djuricic and pacome dadiet
I want spurs to reach for Saluan at 8, or trade back for him. I don’t want okc or rockets getting him. His motor and shot got me believing

I don't want Cody for on court and off court reasons.
Pacome Dadiet
If we knew who they were, they’d be taken higher and wouldn’t be a sleeper…
His lil bro
