So I think it's safe to say that any disappointment about Wiggins' lack of dominance is being countered by Ennis' brilliant season. That buzzer-beater last night looked ridiculous, except that it fits completely with Ennis' clutch stats this season: 8-of-9 from the field and 14-of-14 from the line in the last 5 minutes and OT of 1 possession games, plus 4 assists, 0 turnovers.
Anyway, I thought I'd do a draft roundup of Canadian prospects currently in mocks, in draftexpress and nbadraft. There are 8 guys who have been on mocks for this year's draft at one time or another, although two of them (Hanlan, Birch) are expected to stay another year at this point. I know these aren't the most respected mocks out there (especially NBADraft) but at this point most mocks are only doing first rounds.
Name - DraftExpress rank - NBADraft rank
Wiggins - 2 - 3
Ennis - 9 - 13
Stauskas - 19 - 33
Powell - 40 - X
Ejim - X - 45
Bachynski - X - 56
Hanlan - 57 (2015) - 23 (2015)
Birch - 37 (2015) - 36 (2015)
