Summary
Jeremy Lamb is one of the best combinations of defense and offense on the perimeter in this draft, and given the way the NBA is going, that is a valuable commodity. Scoring is coming more and more from guards and wing players, so having a player who can help shut those positions down as well as providing a plus on offense is extremely valuable. Lamb has that potential and more.
