#1 RJ Barrett (Duke):

RJ Barrett is the top small forward to watch out for the 2019 NBA draft, even though he has fallen a few ranks since the start of the college season. The 19 year old from Duke weights in at 202 pounds, is 6 feet 7 inches tall with a 6 foot 10 inch wingspan.

He is a supremely gifted scorer, who has been a winner at every level of basketball and will be itching to get his hands on a trophy in the NBA as soon as he can. He is an impressive athlete and has a strong work ethic. He has improved in each season and hopefully continues to work on his raw skills to become better in the NBA.

He is a really good on the ball player and has a huge arsenal of moves at his disposal to get away from his defender. An excellent rebounder, Barrett's speed and agility makes him a danger for at the rim finishes.
Barrett averaged 22.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists and just under 1 steal during his season with Duke and even though he was poor from the 3, everyone is hoping he can only get better and perform at the highest stage in the NBA. He is widely linked with the New York Knicks at #3 and it would be no surprise if he goes there to develop into a star.
