MOCK DRAFT HAS COLLILER #1
The DX Draft Express has released their most up to date Mock Draft as teams have finished their NBA Draft Combine. Here is a look at the projected Top-10
Reports are the Spurs were deciding between USC PG Isiah Collier and Kentucky PG DJ Wagner and right now it appears that Collier is going to be the pick.
Reports out of Denver has the Nuggets looking to the future with Jamal Murray potentially leaving and will most like pick whatever PG the Spurs pass on..
Detroit becomes the big winner here as they will grab Kentucky SF Justin Edwards who many thought could be this year's #1 pick.
Washington is then left with the biggest question. Do they take 19 yr old 7'1 Alex Sarr from France, 19 yr old 7'3 Adama Mara from Spain or a more established player like PF Grant Nelson from North Dakota State or Kyle Fiipowski from Duke. DX thinks it will be Sarr.
Portland with Sarr off the board, the experts think Portland will role the dice with Mara at #5
Charlotte could be the big winner as they look to pair High Schooler Matt Buzelis with last year's pick Brandon Miller and PG. LaMelo Ball. The 6'11 SG/SF was the MVP the G league playing for the Ignite in 2023.
Indiana keeps things rolling taking 19 yr old Zachary Risarcher from France at #7, with the Utah Jazz grabbing SG Stephon Castleton out of UConn at #8
Toronto's roster has alot of question marks and they start by filling 1 of them at PG with Kentucky's Robert Dillingham.
That brings us back to Portland for their 2nd pick in the Top-10 and the Trail Blazer grab 6'8 SF Ron Holland from Texas.
