NBA DRAFT GRADES

SI.com's Scott Howard-Cooper analyzes the best and worst NBA draft moves

Memphis: A
The shot blocking and inside presence of second-overall pick Hasheem Thabeet (left) gives the Grizzlies a good chance to turn games around on defense.

Golden State: A
Got the perfect fit in Stephen Curry (No. 7)—he can pick apart a defense, and this offense will get him a lot of shots.

Indiana: D
Took Tyler Hansbrough at No. 13 even though many around the league consider his upside to be as a scrappy reserve.
