Jul 27, 2021 · Despite those exceptions, the majority of top players in this Thursday’s 2021 NBA Draft (8 ET, ABC/ESPN) will be coming from universities across the country. Each year, a huge emphasis is...
- Pick No. 1 — Detroit Pistons. Cunningham opened as a clear favorite to go first at -250 at the start of March, and he’s only gained steam since. Cunningham is currently -2000 to be drafted first at BetMGM, and he’s -10000 at DraftKings (and at BetRivers, which has identical odds to DraftKings on NBA Draft, for now).
- Pick No. 2 — Houston Rockets. With Cunningham penciled in at the top, the draft unofficially begins with the Rockets, and the pick feels wide open right now with any one of Mobley, Green, or Suggs expected to hear their name called.
- Pick No. 3 — Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavaliers were not good this season, but the team has a core to build around going forward. Collin Sexton and Darius Garland both took major steps forward this season.
- Pick No. 4 — Toronto Raptors. The Raptors were a surprise lottery night winner who leapt into the top four. With the right picks, they have a great chance to add a blue-chip talent and quickly return to their competitive ways.
- Cade Cunningham, Oklahoma State. Position: G. Height: 6-foot-8. Weight: 220 lbs. Age: 19, freshman. Dynamic, 6-foot-8 playmaker, distributor and scorer. An extraordinary talent that is the exact archetype of many modern stars – prototypical wing size but with the ball handling and shooting normally associated with smaller guards.
- Evan Mobley, USC. Position: C. Height: 7-foot-0. Weight: 210 lbs. Age: 19, freshman. Arguably the most athletically gifted player in this draft, Mobley is next in the line of 7-footers than can handle the ball and shoot in addition to block shots and rebound.
- Jalen Green, G League Ignite. Position: G. Height: 6-foot-6. Weight: 178 lbs. Age: 19. If you’re looking for electric scoring ability, look no further than Green.
- Jalen Suggs, Gonzaga. Position: G. Height: 6-foot-4. Weight: 205 lbs. Age: 19, freshman. A modern point guard with size and speed, there is a ton to like about Suggs’ game.
- Detroit Pistons, Cade Cunningham, Oklahoma State. Position: Guard.
- Jalen Green, Houston Rockets, G League Ignite. Position : Guard. Age : 19. The Rockets rebuild gets a huge jolt with the addition of Jalen Green, giving them a primary scorer who they can run their offence through.
- Evan Mobley, Cleveland Cavaliers, USC. Position: Center. Age: 19. The Cavaliers added a talented big man to their young core of perimeter players. Mobley possesses an elite two-way skill set, with his polished offensive game giving them scorer in the paint.
- Scottie Barnes, Toronto Raptors, Florida State. Position: Forward. Age: 19. Branes is an excellent defender operating as a point guard in a forward's body.
