Kevon Looney, UCLA vs. Domantas Sabonis, Gonzaga (Friday, 4:15 PM PT)
Kevon Looney is one of the more intriguing unknowns in the draft class. He is extremely versatile with the ability to play both forward spots, has shown himself to be an excellent rebounder (double-digits in both tournament games), and can step out and knock down shots on the perimeter.
Where Looney struggles is his lack of physical strength and overall polish, especially on the offensive end. That will be put to the test against Domantas Sabonis.
Sabonis is a tough, physical forward who crashes the glass relentlessly and will test Looney on the block. Despite coming off the bench, he dominated Iowa with a 18 point, nine rebound performance and while he currently is on the first-round bubble, he could easily turn heads with another dominant performance against the highly touted Looney.
Looney will undoubtedly also have his hands full with Kyle Wiltjer who can be difficult to stop both inside and outside, but Sabonis will will give Looney the biggest test where he has the most proving to do. Looney is sure to be a lottery pick, but can flirt with the top-5 if his results start catching up with his potential. Sabonis will be looking to ensure a first-round selection assuming he declares after his freshman season.
