Michigan State gets their first player off the board with Adreian Payne. Payne was selected #15 by the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks have a strong frontcourt, but Payne could provide a great boost off the bench and could even improve more as time goes on. He has a great deal of athleticism, can rebound, play in the low post, and can shoot. Payne will likely be limited in his first year, but he could be big down the road.
