1. Alexandre Sarr (7-1 C, Perth Wildcats, France)
Prospect Profile: An athletic freak in the paint that can block any shot and is a future defensive anchor. Sarr is an explosive finisher that has good touch around the basket, and the frame to be an offensive threat.
2. Nikola Topic (6-6 PG, Crvena Zvezda, Serbia)
Prospect Profile: A primary ball handler with exceptional court vision and scoring ability that possesses unique size for his position. Topic is also a true point guard who can find the open man and make the correct reads.
3. Reed Sheppard (6-2 Guard, Kentucky)
Prospect Profile: An elite sharpshooter that is also a great athlete. Sheppard is an underrated defender that can play exceptional off-ball defense due to his active hands and IQ. Once he gets out on the fastbreak, Sheppard can finish around the rim and is just a smart player in transition.
4. Donovan Clingan (7-2 C, UCONN)
Prospect Profile: One of the best shot-blockers and interior defenders in the class that can also be active in the passing lane. Clingan can make an immediate impact for any team in the league, and has the potential to be a DPOY.
5. Ron Holland (6-8 Wing, G-League Ignite)
Prospect Profile: An athletic wing that is one of the best perimeter defenders in this draft. Holland can finish with both hands around the rim, but needs to develop a consistent 3pt jumper at the next level.
6. Stephon Castle (6-6 Guard/Wing, Uconn)
Prospect Profile: An athletic defender that is a smart cutter and knows how to play the game. Castle is a great finisher that has a quick first step, but needs to develop a consistent outside shot.
7. Matas Buzelis (6-9 Point Forward, G-League Ignite)
Prospect Profile: He can be a primary offensive initiator that has tremendous court vision and IQ. Buzelis also has shown that he is a good shooter, but needs to prove it on a more efficient percentage.
8. Rob Dillingham (6-1 PG, Kentucky)
Prospect Profile: An electric offensive guard that is an elite 3pt shooter and has the ability to finish through contact at the rim. Dillingham is an undersized guard that needs to put on weight in order to not be a defensive liability, as well as improve his playmaking capabilities.
9. Zaccharie Risacher (6-9 Wing, JL Bourg, France)
Prospect Profile: A versatile offensive weapon that can get to the basket and has proved to be a solid shooter. Risacher has his struggles with finishing around the rim and making the right read.
10. Dalton Knecht (6-6 Wing, Tennessee)
Prospect Profile: A pure 3-level-scorer that can get a bucket at any moment. Knecht is a knockdown sharpshooter, but needs to improve his court vision and perimeter defense.
11. Isaiah Collier (6-3 Guard, USC)
Prospect Profile: An explosive, twitchy point guard that is a great decision maker in the open court. Collier can finish exceptionally well around the basket, but needs a better 3pt shot to make an impact at the next level.
12. Cody Williams (6-7 Wing, Colorado)
Prospect Profile: An impressive perimeter defender with active hands that can disrupt any pass. Williams is great at attacking the basket, but needs to improve his playmaking and needs to start making smarter decisions on offense.
13. Devin Carter (6-3 Guard, Providence)
Prospect Profile: An athletic defender that can the space the floor and has great instincts for the position. Carter is a great finisher around the rim, but needs to touch up his decision making as a ball handler to maximize his potential.
14. Ja'kobe Walter (6-4 Guard/Wing, Baylor)
Prospect Profile: A talented scorer that has the ability to knock down contested shots and get to his spots on the court. Walter needs to improve his ball handling and playmaking, but is already good at getting to the paint and finishing.
15. Tidjane Salaun (6-9 Forward, Cholet, France)
Prospect Profile: A prospect that has already shown the ability to score at all 3 levels and is an athletic freak. Salaun is still a raw prospect that needs to work on his 3pt shot and overall IQ.
16. Jared Mccain (6-2 Guard, Duke)
Prospect Profile: The best catch and shoot 3pt sharpshooter in the entire draft. McCain is best when he is off the ball, but has shown glimpses of future on-ball capabilities that would make him a true combo guard.
17. Tyler Smith (6-9 Forward, G-League Ignite)
Prospect Profile: A great athlete with a silky smooth jumper from the perimeter. Smith needs to work on his defense and touch up his offensive game, but the sky is the limit.
18. Kel'el Ware (6-11 C, Indiana)
Prospect Profile: A springy shot blocker who can stretch the floor and has great interior finishing. Ware needs to develop better IQ and must become more consistent from 3.
19. Carlton Carrington (6-3 Guard, Pittsburgh)
Prospect Profile: A twitchy and explosive guard that excels at getting downhill and attacking the rim. Carrington needs to become a better playmaker as a true PG, and his perimeter defense.
20. Tristan da silva (6-8 Forward, Colorado)
Prospect Profile: A jack-of-all-trades master of none player. Da Silva needs to become better at finishing through contact around the basket and should specialize one of his skills.
21. Johnny Furphy (6-8 Forward, Kansas)
Prospect Profile: A solid athlete that can make an impact in transition. Furphy is still a raw prospect that needs to improve his 3pt shot and overall offensive arsenal.
22. Kyshawn George (6-7 Wing, Miami)
Prospect Profile: A offensive talent with crazy potential as a 2-way player that can shoot the 3 ball. George is still raw and needs to develop as a shot creator and defender.
23. Daron Holmes II (6-9 Forward/C, Dayton)
Prospect Profile: A high-flying big who can finish amongst the trees in the paint. Holmes must work on his 3pt shot, as he is an undersized big that will only receive minutes if he has an outside jumper.
24. Kyle Filipowski (6-11 Forward/C, Duke)
Prospect Profile: An underrated offensive playmaker that has a multitude of post moves and has great court vision. Filipowski needs to develop as a rim protector and decision maker out on the perimeter.
25. Bobi Klintman (6-10 Forward, Cairns Taipans, Sweden)
Prospect Profile: A solid ball handler that can make 3pt shots off the catch. Klintman also has high defensive potential, but needs to refine his feel for the game and physicality as a player.
26. Tyler Kolek (6-1 PG, Marquette)
Prospect Profile: A crafty playmaker that has tremendous court vision and can score the ball in numerous ways. Kolek is an undersized guard that is a liability on defense and is not very physical.
27. Jaylon Tyson (6-6 Wing, California)
Prospect Profile: A potential offensive threat from both the midrange and 3pt land. Tyson needs to refine his defense to fit the prototypical 3 and d mold of most NBA wings, as well as improve his finishing.
28. Ryan Dunn (6-6 Forward, Virginia)
Prospect Profile: One of the best pure defenders this draft class has to offer that is a smart cutter and can finish around the rim. Dunn is a terrible outside shooter and must develop a shot in order for him to be playable.
29. Yves Missi (6-10 C, Baylor)
Prospect Profile: A great athlete with good hands that allow him to alter shots and get active in the pick and roll passing lanes on defense. Missi can finish around the cup, but must become a better free throw shooter and a more physical player.
30. Cam Christie (6-6 Guard/Wing, Minnesota)
Prospect Profile: A knockdown 3pt shooter with massive offensive upside as a 3-level scorer. Christie must become a better perimeter defender and needs to become stronger to be able to unleash his potential.
