ESPN’s Jeremy Woo on the Heat drafting Derik Queen:
“He established himself as the most offensively gifted big in this draft class, giving NBA teams a lot to think about with his ability to handle, pass, and create mismatches, along with his flashes of shooting potential. His motor on the defensive end and on the glass were often questionable, something Queen will have to answer for in the predraft process as teams get to know him. Better effort is within his control, and he can adjust, making him a worthwhile lottery candidate. The Heat have been open to swinging big on talent, and Queen could benefit from landing in Miami, an organization that could get the most out of him.”

Derik Queen 2024-25 Maryland stats:
16.5 PPG, 9.0 RPG, 1.1 BPG, 1.1 SPG, 52.6 FG%

Derik Queen scouting report:
Positives:
– Back-to-the-backet game
– Great handle for his size
– Natural touch = potential shooting
Negatives:
– Size = limited athleticism
– No guarantee in his ability to shoot

Jonathan Givony, ESPN, on the Heat drafting Ben Saraf:
“Saraf went through a rough patch in February and early March, but he is coming off two of his best games of the season for Ulm, rediscovering his jumper and rekindling the playmaking creativity that made him a highly regarded prospect earlier in the season. With Ulm in the home stretch of its regular season, and important games approaching in the German league playoffs, NBA teams will be shifting more attention his way. A team such as Miami, which might want to add a shot creator, could be interested in Saraf’s size, youth, creativity, feel for the game and toughness.”

Ben Saraf 2024-25 Stats (16 GP):
12.8 PPG, 4.6 APG, 2.2 RPG, 41.9 FG%, 22.2 3P%

Ben Saraf scouting report:
Positives:
– Great size for a true point guard
– Knows how to get to his spots
– Solid playmaker in the pick & roll
Negatives:
– Not a consistent 3-point shooter
– Limited athlete
