TWSN

Accuracy: 4.81%272nd Place
The college basketball season is nearing the midway point of its regular season and with the NBA season about thirty games in, it’s time for the first NBA mock draft of the cycle. So far, we’ve seen multiple potential lottery picks in the NCAA in Nick Smith Jr., Cam Whitmore, Keyonte George, Anthony Black, and many others. We’ve also seen guys outside the college game such as Victor Wembanyama, Scoot Henderson, and Amen and Ausar Thompson seemingly cement themselves as top 10 picks. This is one of the deepest classes in terms of the first round talent in many years, and there are still a lot of games left to be played. The order of the draft is randomly simulated (akin to the real NBA lottery) with an order similar to the current standings. Here is the first TWSN NBA mock draft.
