Kris Dunn is the perfect combination of size and strength for a point guard. At 6-4, 220 pounds, he has NBA scouts salivating not only from his physical stature, but his skill set.

Dunn can handle the ball, distribute to teammates, rebound and create his own offense. It’s this skill set that, combined with his physical attributes, puts Dunn ahead of other point guards in his class.

He’ll need to use every bit of his aforementioned assets if the Friars come up against the Tar Heels in the second round of the tourney. The Tar Heels will be difficult for the Friars to match up with. North Carolina’s depth and senior leadership will likely put an end to Dunn’s season, propelling him into the 2016 NBA lottery.
