Daniels compiled 13 points (5-14 FG, 3-7 3PT), eight rebounds, four assists and three steals in 24 minutes during Thursday's preseason loss to the Thunder.
Daniels remained in the starting lineup, a role that could very well be his for the taking when the season starts next week. He makes sense as a defensive stopper alongside Trae Young, with Bogdan Bogdanovic providing a scoring punch off the bench. Despite his limited offensive upside, Daniels should be considered late in drafts, especially for his defensive capabilities and out-of-position rebounding.
