10. Jordan McLaughlin – USC/From California (6-1 175, 21-years-old)

Jordan put up a smooth stats with a 45-40-75 shooting line with averages of 12.4 points, 7.5 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 2 steals this season. He only played 3 games against ranked teams but his numbers held up and he made 6 of 9 triples in those games. His game was good enough to get him on 1st Team All-Pac12. The Suns can use more scoring and passing and he can do both. Vanderbilt witnessed him netting five 3’s en route to a 35 point night. UCSB saw his passing magic when he dished out 19 assists. There were also many thefts as he swiped at least 3 steals in 11 different games helping him get named to the All-Pac12 Defensive Team. McLaughlin went from being a flashy scorer in high school to a true creator in college. He reads the defense and he knows where his team mates are on the court. He is constantly finding his guys out there. Though he looks to pass first, he knows when he needs to shoot and he will shoot the lights out. Sounds like a nice commodity off the pine in Phoenix.
