Full two-round 2020 NBA Mock Draft.
It’s an exciting time for basketball fans. Fans of teams in the playoff picture are gearing up for their squad’s postseason run, while the less successful teams prepare for a top pick by reading countless NBA mock drafts.
Further, March Madness is just around the corner. In addition to providing some of the best basketball possible, it’s a proving ground for the nation’s top prospects, most of which will have their name called by the Commissioner this June.
This is not so much true this year however — at least at the top of the draft. James Wiseman has left Memphis, Anthony Edwards’ and Cole Anthony’s respective teams aren’t likely to make the big dance and international prospects like LaMelo Ball and Killian Hayes obviously won’t be participating.
The 2020 Draft Class is set to be a good one, at least on paper. There’s no sure-fire #1 pick like there was last year with Zion Williamson either. It’s more like the 2018 Draft Class, where a few players (Deandre Ayton, Luka Doncic, Marvin Bagley) all could have gone first, and it just depended on who landed that top pick. With the top-five or so players on most big boards not playing in the tourney, you never know if somebody will raise his stock significantly in March.
Here we’ll be looking at the Draft Class as it stands now, mocking the entire first and second rounds.
Note: Draft order based on NBA standings as of 2/26.
