We are officially less than one week out from the 2023 NBA Draft, so with the NBA season officially in the books and the draft now days out, it's time to grab the magnifying glass and inspect closer how draft night might unfold and what we think will happen. One thing we know: Victor Wembanyama will be the No. 1 pick to the San Antonio Spurs. Lock it in. The drama, as ever, centers around who goes No. 2 and No. 3 ... and so on. In some order, Brandon Miller and Scoot Henderson are believed to be the most in play at No. 2 for the Charlotte Hornets, with the one not selected most likely to get scooped at No. 3 by the Portland Trail Blazers. Those domino decisions will create another effect, with Houston at No. 4 and Detroit at No. 5 also very much up in the air.
