2011 NBA Mock Draft: Minnesota Timberwolves Select Enes Kanter with 2nd Pick

Height: 6'11"

Weight: 260 lbs.

Position: C/PF

Age: 19

Comparison: Luis Scola

We didn't get a chance to see Kanter at all this year because he played professional basketball overseas before he came to play for Kentucky.

Even still, it looks like he's almost a lock to be selected in the top five of this year's draft.

Think of him as a longer, more athletic version of Luis Scola.

He helped himself at the pre-draft camp by participating in all the workouts and performing pretty well in them.

Now that Minnesota has finally come to terms on a deal with Ricky Rubio, they can address some of their other needs--center is a big one for them.

Kanter is listed at 6'11", but his 7'1" wingspan makes him a legitimate center. A frontcourt of Kanter, Kevin Love and Michael Beasley could become a nightmare for other teams.
