1. OKC :Cody Williams 6’8 Colorado SF. A good athlete and on the ball defender. Elite standstill 3 point shooter. He is such a good passer you can title him a point forward.shows flashes of a floater.a very good rim attacker with a good feel for drawing fouls. I Truly believe that OKC wants to revolutionize basketball by having European inspired basketball which prioritizes passing and 3 point shooting. And finding a 6’8 guy that passes the ball this well and shoots it so well and can be the perfect wing defender for them is so scary. This is literally the exact perfect fit for OKC to have them win rings. Perfect fits like this don't usually exist but it is too perfect to not trade for.COMP:too unique to comp.
2.Pistons:Alexander Sarr 7 '1 NBL C- A extremely smooth, well moving athlete that defends the rim so well. He is a 30% 3 point shooter so he may be able to space in the future.he has a good handle and unique shot creation off the handle. Evan Mobley and Jarett Allen have found alot of success playing together and Jalen Duran And Alex sarr could find the same success. COMP 1 Inch taller Evan Mobley.
3.Spurs: Isaiah Collier, 6 '4 USC PG- a very gifted passer who is elite in the pick and roll and attacking the rim. Elite at finishing at the rim. Isaiah Collier is the best point guard and San Antonio obviously needs one.. Comp Jrue Holiday/Deron Williams/De'aaron Fox
4. Wizards.:Rob Dillingham 6’0 Kentucky PG- extremely quick and fast. Very elite shot creation ability and handle.he is a good passer. He is a very elite pick and roll runner. He is competitive and has a unique edge that he plays with that you have to love.The Wizards desperately needs a young point guard and he is an extremely elite prospect. COMP Darius Garland
5.Portland: Zaccharie Risacher 6’8, France,SF- a beautiful 3 point shot with amazing shooting
splits. Very long arms. Good off ball mover. Handle looks very natural and shows the ability to shot creation well from the midrange off of it. He can drive to the rim well. Has efficient long term scoring upside. COMP- a better version of NIcolas Batum..portland needs a young forward and he is the best one available.
6. Pelicans:Kyle Filipowski 7 '0 C- a very good post player. Good passer. Has good handle and shot creating off of it. A good 3 point shooter. A very good posting center with great footwork. Imagine Alpren Sengun on the atlanta hawks with all of that shooting it would be great. Kyle Filipowski’s skill reminds me so much of sengun his offensive upside is huge. The pelicans need another good passer they already have a post scorer and he can shoot the 3 this is way to good of a fit for a team that has felt like one good piece away from making a finals push this is the guy that could be that piece.
7.Spurs:Matas Buzelis 6’10 G-Leuge PF- a point forward who has a very nice feel for driving to the rim with flashes of shot creation for himself. He has a very raw 3 point shot. Yes the Spurs have Jeremy Sochan but have you watched spurs basketball for the last 25 years? Matas Buzelis is a perfect scheme fit for San Antonio and he has a higher upside than Sochan anyway. .COMP-a taller, more raw Franz Vagner.
8. Houston:Nikola Topic 6’6 Serbia PG- very good passer and rim attacker. His scoring skill is extremely raw. Extremely bad defender. Good pick and roll operator. Houston is stacker with really great young talent but the most risky one is asur thompson so taking another shot at the point guard position here makes sense. With Fred Van Fleet there Nikola Topic would have the needed time to develop his offensive skillset. COMP-less offensively skilled taller Goran Dragic
9. Wizards. Yves Missi 6 '11 Baylor C- a good athlete mixed with good strength for the position.a very good rim defender. A good lob threat and rebounder. He moves well on the perimeter.He has developed the ability to drive to the rim and finish which has drastically increased his offensive ceiling.Washington desperatly needs a good center that is good a defense and he checks off that box .COMP-a better more skilled Mitchell Robinson.
10. Hawks: Donovan Clingan 7’2 UConn C- an extremely elite rim defender. Good screener. Good rebounder. He is NBA ready right now. The Hawks really just need to figure out the defensive side of the basketball and quinn snyder found tons of success with rudy gobert as the center and it would make sense to try to draft someone of a similar mold.Comp-Roy Hibbert
11.76ers :Dalton Knecht 6 '6 Tennessee SG- a very elite standstill and off ball moving 3 point shooter. A good pick and roll operator which shows his upside. He is very good driving to the rim drawing fouls. In the next 5 years the 76ers will not have a pick this good so if they see a good fit trading for that good fit makes so much sense. Just close your eyes and imagine Austin Reeves on the 76ers are you telling me that would not make them a much better basketball team?. COMP : a slightly better Austin Reeves.
12.Bulls: Tidjuan Salun 6’9 France Pf- an elite rim attacker and good handle. average 3 point shooter. Good defender. His length makes him a better team defender than on the ball. A very smooth athlete for the size. He is an obvious position fit for the bulls. No comp exist
13. Portland:Ron Holland 6’8 G-League SF- a very gifted athlete with a strong frame. Can get to the rim whenever he wants, raw scoring skill. A good defender when he is focused. Very raw 3 point shot.He is a boom or bust draft pi
14 memphis:Kal'el Ware 7'0 ,Indiana- a very great 3 point shooting big. He moves well on the perimeter defensively . below average rim defender but when he fills out strength wise it will improve.having a 3 point shooting center would be so scary for the rest of the NBA with Ja Morants rim attacking abilities.
15.MIami:Stephon Castle 6’6 UConn PG- an extremely smooth pick and roll operator.a very Good on ball defender who might be the best point guard defender in the draft. Good passer. The 3 point shot and mid range shot is raw. Man MIami can develop talent and them having this high of an upside pg there is scary and Miami desperately needs a young PG.
16.Charlotte: Trentyn Flowers 6 '9 NBL SF- an elite athlete. A very good defender. A good standstill 3 point shooter. A very good athlete.with the starting line up of lemelo ball, Jordan Poole ,Brandon Miller, Miles Bridges Mark Willams they look really good they just need a key bench wing that can defend and Trentyn Flowers can be that .COMP- Taller Kelly Oubre
17Raptors:Reed Sheppard 6’2,Kentucky PG- A very elite 3 point shooter and pull up 3 point shooter. A good passer with unique defensive IQ gifts. He has issues finishing at the rim.
Toronto really needs a young point guard and he fits that.COMP- a better Tyus Jones.

He would be a very interesting backup to Mitchell Robinson
19.Suns :Oso Ighodaro 6’10 Maquette PF- he has top10 pick defensive gifts that is how special he is on that end with elite strength and athletic gifts. Lack of a 3 point shot is the thing that needs development.He is a very very good passer for the position with a unique floater HIs Draymond green like offensive skill set would be a mind blowingly perfect fit for the Suns.COMP-Draymond Green offensively/ Al Horford Defensively.
20. Orlando: Jakobe Walker 6’5 Baylor,SG- a highly Intelligent scorer who is an elite 3 point shooter that shows the ability to get to the rim and drawing fouls. A good off ball mover. There is a huge cutoff line for starting level shooting guards and 40% fg and Jakobe’s is 38% . hawks have so many good role players that they can live with boom or bust draft picks.COMP- very raw Bradley Beal he is a high upside pick that orlando has plenty of time to devlop
21.Hawks:Bobi Klintman 6’10 NBL PF- a very good standstill 3 point shooter. Shows some flashes getting to the rim. A good defender. A backup 3 point shooting power forward that is a very good defender. Atlanta is finally found the forward length they need in Jalen Johnson with having the dept of Bobi Klintman they can finally have more of a blanched team the super small ball experiment for the past 4 years just did not work it is time to shift gears and change unluess they want to lose trae.
22.Nicks: Justin Edwards 6’7,Kentucky SF- A very good athlete that has an average hande and raw shot creation and is a very good defender when focused. His shooting splits have skyrocketed which makes you think if he can grow this much in one year what will he be in 4 years. The Nicks have tons of very good role players so drafting a high upside guy here makes sense.
23.Pelicans:Tyrese Proctor 6’5 Duke PG- a very good on ball defender. A very good athlete. Good passer. Not a ton of scoring skill. Does not realize that he needs to attack the rim. He has top 5 pick gifts but he just does not use them.The Pelicans are a team that really need to find the long term point guard and Dyson Daniels may not be that.
24.Cavs:Tyler Smith 6’9 G Leuge PF- a very switchable and versatile defender. Good standstill 3 point shooter. An average handle that he can get to the rim with. He would be a better version of what role they have George Niiang for. COMP- poor man's Jabari Smith Jr

No shot creation but is a very good standstill 3 point shooter. Utah could use a good 3 and D role player at the small forward position. COMP- OG Annunoby
27.Minnesota:Melvin Ajincia 6’7, France, SF-He is a good athlete mixed with strength. His abil
ity to handle and get to the rim is crazy elite; nobody can stay in front of him. These traits translate to a very good defender. Shows flashes of shot creation off the dribble and off ball movement. His 3 point% and fg % are the reason why he is a boom or bust draft pick but the Timberwolves have plenty of elite roleplayers so taking a high upside shot makes sense. COMP- Raw Paul George
28. Nuggets:Jalen Bridges 6’9 Baylor SF/PF-a very good athlete with a strong body. A very elite on ball defender super switchable.shows the ability to attack the rim . good standstill 3 point shooter. Underrated screener.

33. Spurs:Zach Edy 7’4 Purdue C- an extremely good post player who has some serious issues guarding the pick and roll. This is one of the only places that might use his post skill if they do he would be a good backup to wenby.
34.Milwaukee:Hunter Dickinson 7 '1 Kansas C: a very good post player who is above average passer. Has some definite worries about his ability to defend the pick and roll. A guy that could possible be a backup center that can shoot the 3 makes sense here.

Stronger guy.Really capable ball handler, getting to the rim is not hard for him.Shows shot creation off the dribble in the midrange.Memphis really needs 3 and d wing dept and they gain some here. has some good length adding to that strength makes sense.
39. Thunder:Aaron Bradshaw 7’1,Kentucky, C-a below average 3 point shooting center. r. average rim defender.very thin which is a real issue defensively. He is so thin that a legitimate question is whether he will ever be able to defend the rim in the NBA or rebound in the NBA due to lack of size it is a very thin frame.he is a project that the thunder will give the time to develop.
40.Blazers:Trey Alexander 6’4 Creighton Sg- Really good finisher at the rim. Average defender. Above average passer for a shooting guard. Good standstill 3 point shooter.he could be a really valuable bench guard for Portland
