TIER 6 · #150 OVERALLDepth piece — #73 among guards

De'Anthony Melton is ranked #73 among 198 eligible NBA guards. He profiles as a bench or matchup-based option — draft late or stream when the schedule lines up. His final five games came in 2.9 points per game below his average. His minutes held steady (22.6/game vs 23.1 on the season), so the drop appears related to lower per-minute production rather than reduced playing time.
