104240, I think because Embiid is more "traditional center" polished.

Vonleh was most impressive to me when he was facing the basket on offense, a la Chris Bosh. He's longer than Bosh and a better rebounder than Bosh. Embiid has more potential in that traditional center back-to-basket regard, especially considering that Embiid's footwork seems more polished right away. Vonleh can bang down low though-- he doesn't shy away from it and he works mighty hard.

It wouldn't surprise me if Vonleh passes one or two of the "Top 3" in this draft though. His potential is through the roof.
