We decided it was time for an early in the strangest draft process of my lifetime Mock Draft! We have had games postponed, players missing time and the G-League Ignite having scrimmages hidden from the general public. But, still have some early buzz and hopefully we give some possible new info on some intriguing draft prospects for 2021!

Top 5 seems to be pretty consistent across a majority of Mocks and in NBA circles. Pick 6 is where it gets interesting, and I am honestly leaning in a number of different directions with that one. As per usual, a lot of unknown variables to just how well these players will translate. I will admit that I have always been very high on Scottie Barnes, even with his flaws as a shooter, in terms of half court offense. My question is, I guess kind of a survey, is who do you have 6-10 (or if you feel one of the top 5 guys will slip, how far and who takes their place)?

Still feeling Cade Cunningham is the favorite to go 1, and like Mobley after him with Suggs still a high level prospect. Jonathan Kuminga’s size, athleticism and intensity stood out in the Ignite scrimmages, with Ignite head coach Brian Shaw comparing him to Jaylen Brown (who has really turned a corner this year and is playing fantastic basketball). Who do you guys feel are lottery locks? Where do people have Sharife Cooper, a player whose value I am still trying to work out as well. Any sleepers you think could jump into the top 14?

Would definitely be down to. discuss, or if anyone has questions, hit me up on here or on YouTube, Twitter. Appreciate anyone who likes, subscribes, comments or shares our video. It is huge for us and we will definitely be doing more Mock Drafts and updates in the weeks ahead.

Definitely the deepest draft since 2003..
Mobley plays alot like Former Pitt and nba star Charles Smith..
My Top 5 would be
1.Cummingham
2.Jalen Green
3.Suggs
4.Mobley
5.Jalen Johnson

If Shariffe Cooper was 6’5 he would be a top 10 pick..His shooting is a concern,but he’s an elite playmaker, reminds me of Tyler Ulis..Cooper’s lack of size and length are some negatives teams will look at .Could be a mid 1st to early 2nd round…

SLEEPERS:
1.Josh Giddey-Australia-‘6’8 point guard
2.Vrenz Bleijenbergh-Belguim-6’10 skilled playmaking forward
3.David Johnson-Louisville-6’5 point guard.Could become another Cardinal player that blossoms in the pros.
4.Chris Duarte-Oregon-6’6 guard
5.Mojave King-Australia-6’6 Devin Booker Clone
6.Jason Preston-Ohio-6’4 point guard

Yeah, you are right, this draft is a lot deeper than I initially expected…

[NorrinRaddParticipant]

I’m pretty high on these players right now; They MIGHT crack the lottery, but I see them as first round picks.

Cameron Thomas G
Franz Wagner F
Allen Flanigan SG/SF
Ariel Hukporti C
Juhann Begarin G

it wouldnt surprise me to see thomas slipped into the late lottery.

Sharife Cooper, maybe the hardest prospect to mock in the draft for me. I don’t KNOW what his true size is and how his game combined with his size will translate. Is he the next Trey Burke? Jahii Carson? Jawun Evans? Peyton Siva? Or is he bigger than those guys? I can’t tell how tall he is compared to those other good college players. On this site, he is listed at 6-1 and 180. If that’s true, especially without shoes and if he has a long wingspan he might be drafted pretty high still. If not, he could be a second round pick. I know in HS going to Auburn dude was 5-10 and 150 with a 6-0 wingspan.
