Rashad Vaughn, G, UNLV
6'5" | 199 lbs. | 18 years old

18.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 44.7 FG%, 32.7 minutes
Selection:
First round, 17th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks
NBA
Quotable:
"I think a lot of people just look at me as a shooter. I can do a lot more things. I can score the ball from all three levels, I can play on and off the ball, I can make plays for my teammates. That’s one thing I’m looking to show. I did a lot of shooting but ball handling and making plays is something I always did, something I’ve been working on and I have to show. But I have to show I am a shooter because the NBA loves shooters."
Analysis:
O.J. Mayo simply isn't the answer, and at the very worst Vaughn will provide depth on the second unit for an offense that ranked second-to-last in efficiency a year ago. At just 19, he has plenty of room to grow.
