It is finally time for the 2023 NBA Draft! Over the last several weeks, hundreds of prospects have been putting their skills to the test to prove to the 30 NBA franchises that they have what it takes to play in this league. Now, 58 of them will forever have their lives change when they hear their name called during Thursday’s draft. Between trade rumors and pre-draft workouts, the NBA rumor mill has been going nonstop. Outside of Victor Wembanyama going first overall to the San Antonio Spurs, there is still no clear picture for how this year’s draft will play out, though signs are pointing to Brandon Miller going No. 2 to the Charlotte Hornets. There may be multiple trades made inside the top 10 of the draft. As you go down the draft board, plenty of other teams could look to be on the move. However, the one thing all the teams around the league are in agreement on is how talented this year’s draft class truly is. From Wembanyama down, the rookies entering the league during the 2023-24 season have a chance to be a very special group of players for many years to come, which is why the 2023 NBA Draft has a chance to be one of the best yet.
