LB NBA Mock Draft: San Antonio Spurs Select Montrezl Harrell 26th

With the 26th overall pick in the 2015 Liberty Ballers NBA Mock Draft, the San Antonio Spurs select ... Montrezl Harrell, the 6-foot-8, 250 pound power forward from Louisville.

The 21-year-old Harrell is the No. 22 overall prospect as ranked by DraftExpress. Harrell finished his junior year with 15.7 PPG, 9.2 RPG, 1.4 APG, and 1.2 BPG in 35 appearances. He shot 56.6%/24.3%/59.7%.

ESPN's Chad Ford recently mocked Harrell to the Spurs. I made this pick before his mock came out, so clearly he's taking advice from me. Here's what he wrote:

"Harrell has explosive athleticism and is tough, but his lack of focus has scared some teams off. The Spurs are the right sort of culture to nurture his strengths and minimize his weaknesses. They definitely could use some back-up help at the 4."

I've liked Harrell for quite some time now. (See?) It's really a shame the Sixers don't have the Thunder pick because it'd be great to see him in Philly. I love the energy and toughness he plays with. He's just so fun to watch. So many DUNKS:

Harrell won't be a star but I really like his potential to contribute as a role player. Especially on a team like the Spurs.
