Iggy is the most likely impact player next season whether it be in the development league or in the NBA. His 39% shooting from three-point land and his 14.8 points-per-game make him a potential first rounder but most likely an early second rounder.

What really sets Iggy apart from the rest is his NBA size  (6-foot-7, 215lbs) and his rebounding (5.4 per game).

His ability to play both the wing and four positions are also bonuses; however, he will need to drastically improve on defense.

Atlanta Hawks Pick 35

Who better to back up Trae Young than Iggy for a steal at 35. With all of the cap space in Georgia, the Hawks could target some veterans making it unnecessary to rely on Iggy from day one.

Philadelphia 76ers Pick 35, 42, or 54

The Sixers have a lot of off-season decisions to make with the potential departures of Jimmy Butler, Tobias Harris, and veteran J.J. Redick. Iggy isn’t ready to step into the limelight just yet but adding him and dumping others would free up some money for the impending Ben Simmons max contract extension coming soon.
