Our view

Rookie-year glue guy — boards and steals per minute, no shooting to speak of at 42% with a rare three; only a defensive-stat streamer if his minutes double.

Brooks Barnhizer enters 2026-27 at #530 on our board — Round 45 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 2.2 points, 2.1 rebounds and 0.7 assists in 9.5 minutes a night. The value is built on turnovers, with scoring the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-scoring builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability is the swing factor — we expect about 34 games, which is priced into his draft value.
