The NBA Draft is the beginning of a new chapter for the players that are selected. Rebuilding teams rely heavily on the draft, as they need to bring in young players that can right the ship for the organization. Some of these guys turn out to be franchise and role players with long careers, while others turn out to be bench riders or busts. Here are three draftees that have major boom-or-bust potential.

1. Bol Bol

Boom: At 7-foot-2 with a 7'8 wingspan, the biggest upside for Bol is his size and defensive potential. What makes him even more dangerous is his ability to stroke the three ball and score in one-on-one situations. His length and mobility make him a matchup problem for most big men.

2. Cam Reddish

3. Kevin Porter Jr.

Boom: At 6-foot-8, Reddish has the size to play the forward position, but also has the skill set and mobility to play as a wing. His shot creativity and scoring ability matched that of a pro skill set. His NBA potential is huge if we're looking at pure talent in a pick.
