Justin Harper vs. Thomas Robinson, Marcus and Markieff Morris
Though he has the size of a power forward, Justin Harper is more comfortable on the perimeter and facing up ala Rashard Lewis. But his defense is going to be tested as he faces three strong post players in Thomas Robinson and the Morris twins. Harper needs to prove he can defend in the post and that he isn't just a small forward in a power forwards body. He'll still have a role in this league (any athletic 6-10 player who can shoot 45% from 3 does) but he'll go a lot higher if he can be at least an average defensive player at the 4.
Michael Snaer vs. Bradford Burgess
Neither of these players is on NBA radars, but both guys can score some and defend. Snaer is the better athlete while Burgess is a better shooter. They'll be looking to shut each other down and while it won't be a marquee matchup between NBA prospects, it'll be a fun battle to watch.
