UCLA Basketball: Six players that could be taken in the 2018 NBA Draft

Jaylen Hands – Freshman – Point Guard

There is a good chance that Hands is a one-and-done. He has incredible skills on both sides of the court, but his best assets could be his ball-handling skills.

It is quite possible that he handles the rock better than Lonzo Ball. Though Lonzo may be a better Baller, Jaylen could have better Hands. Yes, I went there.

Now let’s talk about how Hands lives in the air. This kid has hops and he is going to be a human highlight reel when he gets to Westwood next season. He has fantastic vision and can score from almost anywhere on the floor.

But that is not all. He likes to get in the mix on defense, which gives him several valuable assets for a pro team to utilize. It seems likely that he is gone after next season, so the better he performs in 2017-18 will only push him closer to the lottery.
