Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Cole Anthony
Summary

Acuff was as dynamic as any lead guard in high school basketball last year, showing a real ability to put his team on his back and drive winning. There is less collective enthusiasm about his NBA stock to start the season, but that sentiment isn’t nearly as endorsed by those who followed him closely in high school.
