  1. Mikey Williams is a star on and off the court. His explosive dunking ability makes him a fan favorite and he’s a scoring machine who can get really hot and put up big numbers. He’s got rare above the rim ability for a player his size and age, bringing back memories of Steve Francis’s dunking ability. Williams is a combo guard who looks to ...

    He almost assuredly won't go first or possibly even second, but Banchero is first on my board. At 6-10, 235 pounds, he has the perfect blend of an NBA-ready body and polished skill set, able to create his own shot and make plays for others. Banchero is a matchup nightmare with the potential to play the five in today's evolving outside-in NBA. His b...

    The 6-10 forward has a case as the best pure shooter in this class, one capable of knocking down shots from all over the floor with his high release and smooth stroke. Ultimately, Smith's development beyond his greatest skill will determine his ceiling. His quick feet, length and athleticism make him the type of versatile defender every NBA team is...

    Yes, Ivey over Holmgren. It will be a surprise on draft night if Ivey goes higher than fourth to the Sacramento Kings. But it should be a surprise to nobody if Ivey develops into the best player in this draft. The Purdue sophomore is explosive and electrifying when he gets downhill and attacks the rim, looking like he has a turbo button at times. H...

    Holmgren's gap between floor and ceiling is significantly wider than any player in this draft. Holmgren's critics are loud, but the 7-1 center is a unicorn with elite shot-blocking and an ability to stretch the floor as a 3-point shooter. While placing him fourth here might feel like a knock, I still have Holmgren as comfortably the best center in ...

    Murray headlines this next tier with a skill set that will translate easily to the NBA. He can mesh with any roster. He's an efficient scorer from all three levels of the floor and his defensive versatility is perfect for today's NBA. He'll plug-and-play as a rookie and among the most ready to contribute right now.

    Sharpe lands in this tier even without playing a single college game because of his prolific scoring and elite athleticism. He's received favorable comparisons to Jalen Green who went third overall to the Rockets in the 2021 NBA Draft. Sharpe is a classic high upside roll of the dice pick.

    Daniels could be the best perimeter defender in this class. His length and energy make him extremely disruptive and suffocating. His passing ability allows him to act as a secondary initiator on offense and he's a proven off-the-ball scorer as a cutter. Because of his defensive effort and penchant for working hard as a slasher, Daniels is the type ...

    Mathurin has a lightning-quick first step, and he has improved his handle to become a more lethal shot creator. In two years at Arizona, he developed a reputation as a big-game player who welcomes big moments. He's got a chance to be the most complete two-way wing in this draft.

    Duren is a bruiser, a bit of a throwback big who is easily the most physically overpowering prospect in this class. What he lacks in polish on the offensive end he more than makes up for defensively as he's exceptionally quick and fluid for a player of his size.

    Davis may not possess star potential, but it's not hard to imagine Davis as a high-end role player on an NBA Finals team. After averaging 7.0 points per game as a freshman, Davis elevated his game to become one of the best scorers in the country, averaging 19.7 points per game as a sophomore. He works hard on defense and takes pride in being a phys...
