Player \| Ht \| Wt \| Pos \| Team \| Age
	1. *Charlotte \| Shabazz Muhammad \| 6-6 \| 225 \| SG/SF \| UCLA \| 18 Charlotte needs help every where. Muhammad has most upside since Zeller will stay at IU.
	2. Washington \| Nerlens Noel \| 6-11 \| 225 \| PF/C \| Kentucky \| 18 Would like a young center; not close to ready but highly thought of
	3. Cleveland \| James McAdoo \| 6-9 \| 230 \| SF/PF \| North Carolina \| 19 Passed on Barnes for Waiters trying to make up for that mistake.
	4. New Orleans \| Tony Mitchell \| 6-8 \| 235 \| SF/PF \| North Texas \| 20 Hopefully fills a need at the three. Good thing he can play inside because Anderson and Davis would rather shoot threes.
	5. *Sacramento \| Alex Poythress \| 6-8 \| 240 \| SF/PF \| Kentucky \| 19 One word upside
	6. Brooklyn \| LeBryan Nash \| 6-7 \| 230 \| SF \| Oklahoma State \| 20 Gerald Wallace replacement
	7. *Utah \| CJ McCollum \| 6-3 \| 190 \| PG/SG \| Lehigh \| 21 All the Jazz need is a point.
	8. *Houston \| Kentavious Caldwell-Pope \| 6-6 \| 200 \| SG \| Georgia \| 19 Best 2 in draft.
	9. *Detroit \| DeShaun Thomas \| 6-7 \| 220 \| SF/PF \| Ohio State \| Prolific scorer falls in to Pistons’ lap.
	10. Minnesota \| Rudy Gobert \| 7-1 \| 230 \| C \| France \| 20 Good potential. Will get time to develop.
	11. *Portland \| Lorenzo Brown \| 6-5 \| 186 \| PG \| NC State \| 22 Combo adds depth.
	12. Milwaukee \| Adonis Thomas \| 6-7 \| 245 \| SF \| Memphis \| 19 Gives Bucks’ size outside.
	13. Phoenix \| Doug McDermott \| 6-8 \| 225 \| SF \| Creighton \| 20 Provides scoring on the wing.
	14. *Houston \| Ryan Harrow \| 6-1 \| 175 \| PG \| Kentucky \| 21 Change of pace from Linn.
	15. *Miami \| Jeff Withey \| 7-0 \| 235 \| C \| Kansas \| 22 Not a scorer but Heat don’t need one. Big time shot blocking, rebounding, and athletic ability adds to the Heat.
	16. New York \| Ian Miller \| 6-3 \| 190 \| PG \| Florida St. \| 21 Finally point they crave?
	17. *Dallas \| Trevor Mbakwe \| 6-8 \| 245 \| PF \| Minnesota \| 23 Forward helps Mavs with one last push for title.

	22. LA Clippers \| Trey Zeigler \| 6-5 \| 195 \| SG \| Pittsburgh \| 21 Nice fit.
	23. Atlanta \| Scott Wood \| 6-6 \| 175 \| SG/SF \| NC State \| 22 Shooter will climb draft board. College offense hides his ability. Taller than advertised. handles and passes the ball better than most points.
	24. *Cleveland \| Mason Plumlee \| 6-11 \| 240 \| PF \| Duke \| 22
	25. *Minnesota \| Nate Wolters \| 6-4 \| 193 \| PG \| South Dakota St. \| Combo from St Cloud is a perfect fit.
	26. Indiana \| Rotnei Clarke \| 6-0 \| 185 \| PG \| Butler \| 23 Shooter replaces DJ Augustin after Butler has a big year behind transfer.
	27. *Phoenix \| Isaiah Austin \| 7-1 \| 220 \| PF/C \| Baylor \| 18 Suns need players.
	28. Oklahoma Cty \| Ray McCallum \| 6-1 \| 190 \| PG \| Detroit \| 21 Could be elite back up.
	29. Chicago \| Christian Watford \| 6-9 \| 230 \| SF \| Indiana \| 21 Good athlete with skill set and size to play both forward spots off the bench.
	30. San Antonio \| E.J. Singler \| 6-6 \| 215 \| SF \| Oregon \| 22 Spurs’ type of guy.

	36. *Phoenix \| Brandon Davies \| 6-9 \| 235 \| PF \| BYU \| 21 Nice post.
	37. *Denver \| Isaiah Canaan \| 6-1 \| 200 \| PG \| Murray St. \| 21 Andre Miller can’t play forever.
	38. Toronto \| Marc Trasolini \| 6-9 \| 235 \| PF \| Canada \| 22 Stretch 4 is Canadian.
	39. Detroit \| Rodney Williams \| 6-7 \| 200 \| SF \| Minnesota \| 21 Big time athlete.
	40. *Portland \| Zeke Marshall \| 7-0 \| 235 \| C \| Akron \| 21 Shot blocker.
	41. *Denver \| Brandon Paul \| 6-4 \| 200 \| SG \| Illinois \| 21 See #37.
	42. Milwaukee \| Elias Harris \| 6-7 \| 240 \| SF/PF \| Gonzaga \| 23 German can play.
	43. Phoenix \| God’s Gift Achiuwa \| 6-8 \| 240 \| PF \| St. Johns \| Only started to scratch the surface of potential.
	44. *Atlanta \| Alex Oriakhi \| 6-9 \| 255 \| PF/C \| Missouri \| 22 Tough.
	45. Philadelphia \| Laurence Bowers \| 6-8 \| 225 \| SF/PF \| Missouri \| 22 See #44.
	46. *Washington \| Erik Murphy \| 6-10 \| 240 \| PF \| Florida \| 21 These Florida guys seem to underachieve in college. Next Chandler Parsons?
	47. Dallas \| Matthew Dellavedova \| 6-4 \| 190 \| PG/SG \| St. Mary’s \| 22 Kid can play.
	48. Utah \| Seth Curry \| 6-2 \| 180 \| PG/SG \| Duke \| 22 Could fill his dad’s old role in league.
	49. *Cleveland \| Jack Cooley \| 6-9 \| 245 \| PF \| Notre Dame \| 21 Looks like Harangody but his game looks different.
	50. *Phoenix \| Brock Motum \| 6-10 \| 230 \| PF \| Washington State \| 21 Aussie is proven scorer in PAC 12.
	51. *Portland \| Mike Muscala \| 6-11 \| 235 \| PF/C \| Bucknell \| 21 Nice pick up late in draft.
	52. LA Clippers \| Ryan Kelly \| 6-11 \| 230 \| PF \| Duke \| 21 One real skill but that skill spreads the court for Blake.
	53. Atlanta \| Augusto Lima \| 6-9 \| 240 \| PF \| Brazil \| 21 Low risk here.
	54. *LA Lakers \| Mindaugas Kupsas \| 7-1 \| 260 \| C \| Lithuania \| 21 Reloading?
	55. Memphis \| Jake Cohen \| 6-10 \| 235 \| PF \| Davidson \| 22 Pick and pop guy.

It’s way to early to critique a mock draft so just do whatever you want right now after the seasons over then ask for help with your mock.

It’s really just to early to tell right now. We haven’t saw many of them play against good competition and until then it’s really hard to justify any type of order.

Tyler Zeller, Otto Potter and Steven Adams are three guys who probably won’t go undrafted.
Nash, McCollum and Thomas are probably too high as well.

  Obviously he meant Cody Zeller, as Tyler is already drafted.
  But Zeller, Potter and Adams (if he gets enough playing time and declares) should all be lottery picks.
  Like others have mentioned, it is way too early to critique a mock draft. A lot can (and will) change dramatically throughout the year. Lots of freshman to evaluate.
  One guy who I think could move into the 1st round is Texas’ Myck Kabongo. I like his NBA potential.
