With the NBA draft withdrawal deadline passing, teams now know the official field of NCAA prospects.

The biggest name to stay in was Bronny James, who's either too committed to go back or confident in where he'll end up. For the first time this year, James has been added to our second-round projections.

Other big names to stay in include San Francisco's Jonathan Mogbo, Kansas' Johnny Furphy, Washington State's Jaylen Wells and Minnesota's Cam Christie.

Alex Karaban, Payton Sandfort, Hunter Sallis, Coleman Hawkins and Jaxson Robinson were our highest-ranked players to withdraw. That means more open spots in the second round and new names being added to our projections.

1. Atlanta Hawks: Zaccharie Risacher

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 1

Team: JL Bourg-en-Bresse

Position: SG/SF

Size: 6'8", 204 lbs

Age/Year: 19

Nationality: French

Pro Comparison: Harrison Barnes

Every Zaccharie Risacher playoff possession right now is likely monitored under the microscope of the Atlanta Hawks and other lottery teams. And he just delivered consecutive standout performances with a combined 39 points and five threes against AS Monaco.

He's still scoring on mostly the same shot diet and effective one-two punch of off-ball shotmaking and athleticism in transition. It hints at a very translatable, plug-and-play game, particularly for a lineup like Atlanta's that already has two creators in Trae Young and Dejounte Murray.

Alex Sarr may offer more theoretical upside with his defensive versatility and face-up flashes at 7'1". Donovan Clingan could come off as more of an impact presence with his rim protection.

While scouts continue to debate the height of Risacher's ceiling, there is also a perceived level of certainty tied to his positional size, shooting and defensive tools/quickness. In a draft where there isn't an obvious, sure-thing All-Star at the top, Risacher's floor and valued three-and-D archetype could give him an edge with a team that saw AJ Griffin struggle with injuries and Saddiq Bey go down late to an ACL tear.

2. Washington Wizards: Alex Sarr

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 2

Team: Perth Wildcats

Position: PF/C

Size: 7'0", 224 lbs

Age/Year: 19

Nationality: French

Pro Comparison: Evan Mobley

With the Washington Wizards expected to be patient during their rebuild, they should be fitting suitors for Alex Sarr. Some scouts and executives have questioned his offensive polish for a potential No. 1 overall pick, but the Wizards' timeline and roster needs point to a match.

The rise and success of defensive bigs with perimeter skill sets—Evan Mobley, Jaren Jackson Jr., Chet Holmgren, Victor Wembanyama—also adds to the allure of Sarr.

He measured well in Chicago, coming in at just under 7'0" in socks, 224 pounds with a 7'4" wingspan. At that size, the ability to slide his feet, handle in the open floor and shoot off the dribble really separates him from other centers.

The Wizards will eventually need to find a point guard, but at No. 2, Sarr's physical talent, evolving skill versatility and defense create visions of upside that could be difficult to resist.

3. Houston Rockets (via Nets): Reed Sheppard

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 6

Team: Kentucky

Position: PG/SG

Size: 6'2", 182 lbs

Age/Year: 19, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Donte DiVincenzo

Fit could play a bigger role than usual this year during a draft where it's difficult to identify surefire stars or the best player available. The Houston Rockets should love what Reed Sheppard brings to their specific rotation—elite shooting, passing and intangibles/character that scouts and executives praised after interviewing him at the NBA combine.

For Sheppard, an undersized 2 who's more limited off the dribble, Amen Thompson would also be the ideal backcourt partner with his creation/playmaking and ability to defend bigger guards. And Sheppard feels perfect for Thompson with his ability to stretch the floor and create space for a limited shooter and shifty ball-handler.

4. San Antonio Spurs: Nikola Topić

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 4

Team: KK Crvena Zvezda

Position: PG

Size: 6'6", 198 lbs

Age/Year: 18

Nationality: Serbian

Pro Comparison: Goran Dragić

Another knee injury could complicate evaluations and decisions on Nikola Topić, who's going to miss the rest of the Adriatic League playoffs. However, there has been no indication of any serious damage, and the San Antonio Spurs have presumably seen enough to have confidence in Topić's playmaking and rim pressure.

He should also attend the makeup NBA combine held June 4-7 for international prospects who missed the one in Chicago. While his level of participation remains unclear, NBA doctors will surely evaluate his injury.

He should be in the best-player-available conversation around No. 4, while his ball-screen play and passing could give him an extra edge for a team that needs more creation and a guard to make the game easier for Victor Wembanyama.

5. Detroit Pistons: Cody Williams

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 10

Team: Colorado

Position: SF/PF

Size: 6'7", 178 lbs

Age/Year: 19, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Jaden McDaniels

Cody Williams has been trending in NBA conversations after his workouts and pro day. Some believe he's the most likely to go earlier than expected.

The debate right now revolves around his ceiling, but scouts and execs sound like they won't be surprised to see a top-five team that values Williams' archetype and wants to bet on his development.

At baseline, without an advanced handle or perimeter game, he still averaged 11.9 points, shot 58.8 percent inside the arc and 41.5 percent from three. And at 6'6.5" in socks with a giant 7'1" wingspan, his defensive tools remain outstanding.

Even a worst-case outcome for Williams can contribute with his efficient off-ball scoring and ability to guard wings and forwards. But given his age and reported character—plus the fact his brother Jalen appears on track toward blossoming into an All-Star—the Detroit Pistons could talk themselves into Williams' upside.

6. Charlotte Hornets: Donovan Clingan

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 3

Team: Connecticut

Position: C

Size: 7'2", 282 lbs

Age/Year: 20, Sophomore

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Roy Hibbert

Even with a healthy Mark Williams, Donovan Clingan may look like the best player available who's tough to pass up for the Charlotte Hornets. He could also look like an enticing trade-up target for other teams that didn't think he'd make it outside the top five.

With Williams and Clingan, the Hornets could lock themselves into 48 minutes of rim protection to help change the team's identity. Clingan also gives Charlotte insurance, as Williams has only played 62 games in two seasons.

The hype around Clingan has ultimately grown, even after the NCAA tournament, with how easily he's shown he can shoot the three during workouts.

7. Portland Trail Blazers: Dalton Knecht

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 7

Team: Tennessee

Position: SG/SF

Size: 6'5", 212 lbs

Age/Year: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Wally Szczerbiak

The Portland Trail Blazers seem unlikely to draft another guard like Rob Dillingham. And the timelines of Ron Holland and Matas Buzelis may make them less attractive to a team that will be looking to give Scoot Henderson more help.

At 23 years old with a strong frame, outstanding shotmaking ability and a competitive edge, Dalton Knecht could look like a sure thing worth adding at No. 7. He comes with a level of skill, polish and professionalism that Portland could value over the perceived upside of bigger projects like Cody Williams and the Ignite teenagers.

8. San Antonio Spurs (via Raptors): Stephon Castle

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 5

Team: Connecticut

Position: SG

Size: 6'6", 210 lbs

Age/Year: 19, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Anthony Black

Opinions vary on Stephon Castle's draft stock.

As much as his name was buzzing after the NCAA tournament, scouts still think he'll be on the board outside the top five.

While the San Antonio Spurs may be drawn to the idea that he can operate as a big playmaker, scouts have been most interested in his versatility, adaptability and tremendous perimeter defense.

Even with minimal shooting improvement, Castle has proved he can impact games with physical rim pressure, passing, offensive rebounding and defensive toughness.

9. Memphis Grizzlies: Rob Dillingham

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 9

Team: Kentucky

Position: PG/SG

Size: 6'1", 164 lbs

Age/Year: 19, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Darius Garland

Not that anyone was expecting Rob Dillingham to surprise with strong measurements, but 164 pounds could be seen as a scary number. His height, length and weight (6'1", 6'3" wingspan) are actually identical to Trae Young's, only Young led the NBA in assists, and Dillingham doesn't offer that level of playmaking.

Still, the offensive firepower he can generate with creation and shotmaking remains appealing. There isn't a guard in this class more shifty and effective at getting to spots.

He does have fans, and even teams like the Washington Wizards at No. 2 and San Antonio Spurs will give him a look.

Depending on teams' level of concern with his shot diet, poor defense and fit (for lineups with established point guards), he could slide into the second tier of the lottery.

10. Utah Jazz: Ron Holland

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 8

Team: G League Ignite

Position: SF

Size: 6'7", 197 lbs

Age: 18

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Cam Whitmore

Ron Holland is a candidate to slide with scouts feeling comfortable about Dalton Knecht's shooting and potentially more compelled by Cody Williams' efficiency and Stephon Castle's versatility.

This still feels late and like good value for an explosive, 18-year-old wing who averaged 19.5 points in the G League.

The losses, poor shooting and suspect decision-making have turned certain scouts off, but even without a reliable jump shot or high-level creation, he still put up big numbers using his speed, improved ball-handling, athleticism around the basket and streak shotmaking.

11. Chicago Bulls: Matas Buzelis

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 11

Team: G League Ignite

Position: SF

Size: 6'9", 197 lbs

Age: 19

Nationality: American/Lithuanian

Pro Comparison: Hedo Türkoğlu

Teams will consider Matas Buzelis earlier than No. 11. At 6'9" in socks, his scoring versatility and defensive playmaking flashes create a coveted archetype. But at this stage, the idea of Buzelis remains more enticing than the results.

The results and feelings on the 19-year-old wing continue to be mixed.

Workouts will be extra important for Buzelis, who came to Ignite with expectations of being a solid shooter but finished at 26.1 percent from three.

12. Oklahoma City Thunder (via Rockets): Tidjane Salaun

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 12

Team: Cholet

Position: PF

Size: 6'9", 212 lbs

Age: 18

Nationality: French

Pro comparison: Obi Toppin

Tidjane Salaun has been streaky, but he ended his season playing some of his best ball and combined for 33 points during Cholet's two playoff losses to Paris.

Salaun, who made an impressive 74 threes as a 6'9" 18-year-old, continued to show NBA teams his shooting range. Though his handle and self-creation remain limited, he's still finding ways to earn easy baskets from off the ball, tapping into his size, athleticism and motor.

13. Sacramento Kings: Devin Carter

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 13

Team: Providence

Position: PG/SG

Size: 6'2", 193 lbs

Age/Year: 22, Junior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Derrick White

A big winner from athletic testing, Devin Carter set an NBA combine record in the sprint, tied for the highest max vertical and finished third in lane agility time. He also measured a near 6'9" wingspan, huge and key for a guard who could be considered undersized at the 2.

Despite strange shooting mechanics, he made plenty of jumpers during drills after hitting 84 threes this season. Teams may question the upside of a 6'2" combo, but between the shotmaking improvement, nifty ball-screen play and outstanding defensive length, IQ, quickness and intensity, Carter looks like a top-20 lock who'll get looks in the late lottery.

14. Portland Trail Blazers (via Warriors): Kel'el Ware

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 16

Team: Indiana

Position: C

Size: 7'0", 230 lbs

Age/Year: 20, Sophomore

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Brook Lopez

Kel'el Ware measured well at the NBA combine, even showing a standing reach that was 2.5 inches longer than that of potential No. 1 overall pick Alex Sarr. He was also down 12 pounds from Indiana's listing. For Ware to maximize his draft stock, he's going to have to convince teams to buy into his three-point range.

Ware still has a very high skill level for a center who's above average athletically and nearly 7'0" in socks. And the big increase in scoring production helped validate the effectiveness of his tools, movement and shotmaking.

15. Miami Heat: Jared McCain

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 14

Team: Duke

Position: PG/SG

Size: 6'2", 203 lbs

Age/Year: 20, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Immanuel Quickley

Jared McCain put on some impressive shooting displays during drills at the combine, showing textbook repetition of form. Shotmaking has and will always be what powers his offense and value, but McCain's effectiveness this year in ball-screen situations, using change of speed, footwork, crafty finishing and vision, point to more on-ball upside with his creativity and feel.

16. Philadelphia 76ers: Isaiah Collier

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 15

Team: USC

Position: PG

Size: 6'3", 205 lbs

Age/Year: 19, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Tyreke Evans

Listed as 6'5" by USC, Isaiah Collier measured 6'2.5" (socks) with a near 6'5" wingspan at the NBA combine. He also didn't shoot that well during drills, and teams will be looking closely into his almost set jump shot during workouts.

Still, the draw to Collier is his shiftiness for creativity, physicality attacking and finishing and live-dribble passing skill. Teams that think his jump shot and decision-making should improve will see more upside than those worried about his low-volume three-point numbers and turnovers. But even teams who have those concerns may be interested in Collier's ability to break down defenses, make plays off the bounce and put pressure on the rim.

17. New Orleans Pelicans (via Lakers): Yves Missi

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 17

School: Baylor

Position: C

Size: 6'11", 229 lbs

Age/Year: 20, Freshman

Nationality: Cameroon

Pro comparison: Nic Claxton

Yves Missi measured well at nearly 6'11" in socks with a 7'2" wingspan. He should start to draw mid-to-late first-round interest from teams that covet his defensive upside as a rim protector and his ability to move his feet around the perimeter and recover in pick-and-roll coverage. The offense is a bonus, but Baylor ran plenty of actions for Missi around the top of the key, where he showed he can face up, put the ball down and attack opposing bigs.

18. Orlando Magic: Ja'Kobe Walter

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 18

Team: Baylor

Position: SG/SF

Size: 6'4", 198 lbs

Age/Year: 19, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

No new updates were made to Ja'Kobe Walter's scouting report after the NBA combine. His measurements, middle-of-the-pack athletic tests and promising shotmaking sequences were all expected.

He's going to get pegged with a safe label that sees a three-and-D 2-guard who can defend both wing positions. The lack of creation and playmaking may just make it tougher for teams to picture upside worth a top-10 pick.

19. Toronto Raptors (via Pacers): Zach Edey

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 19

School/Team: Purdue

Position: C

Size: 7'4", 299 lbs

Age: 22, Senior

Nationality: Canadian

Pro comparison: Jonas Valančiūnas

At the least, Zach Edey may have opened scouts' imaginations at the combine with the comfort level he demonstrated making jump shots during drills. Regardless, for a center who measures just under 7'4" in socks with a near 7'11" wingspan, his touch and footwork have gotten sharp enough for scouts to picture a useful low-post scorer and offensive rebounder. Teams deeper up front will look elsewhere. So will those who question how playable he'll be defensively in the playoffs. He'll be enticing to teams looking to add more size, physicality around the basket and interior offense.

20. Cleveland Cavaliers: Tristan da Silva

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 20

School/team: Colorado

Position: SF/PF

Size: 6'8", 217 lbs

Age/Year: 23, Senior

Nationality: German/Brazilian

Pro comparison: Trey Lyles

Tristan da Silva had a quiet NBA combine, measuring as expected and finishing middle of the pack during athletic tests before skipping scrimmages.

Teams will start to think about da Silva in the mid-to-late first round, with the idea that he can provide plug-and-play shotmaking and complementary, spot-up scoring. Though not overly explosive off the dribble, a high skill level (at 6'8") and basketball IQ will have some teams willing to look past the athletic limitations.

21. New Orleans Pelicans (via Bucks): Terrence Shannon Jr.

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 21

Team: Illinois

Position: SG/SF

Size: 6'6", 219 lbs

Age/Year: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Kelly Oubre Jr.

An injury kept Terrence Shannon Jr. from drilling or testing at the NBA combine. Right now, the focus from NBA teams will be on his June 10 court date that was set after a May 10 hearing for rape allegations made against Shannon.

A cloud remains over his breakout season and the type of speed, athleticism, shotmaking improvement and defensive tools that would normally generate plenty of NBA interest.

22. Phoenix Suns: Kyle Filipowski

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 23

Team: Duke

Position: PF/C

Size: 6'11", 230 lbs

Age/Year: 20, Sophomore

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Moritz Wagner

Measurements and athletic testing results from the NBA combine won't do Kyle Filipowski any favors. With shoes on, (6'10.75" in socks), he'll wind up with a negative wingspan (6'10.5"). And he finished in the bottom half of the foot speed and leaping tests.

His draft stock has mostly remained unchanged for the past few months, though pre-draft risers could push him down boards. His shooting range, post skill, improved finishing and passing and defensive mobility create versatility that should lock Filipowski into the late lottery/mid-first round.

While he doesn't project as a top option like he was at Duke, he checks the right complementary boxes to make a quick transition to a supporting stretch 4 or 5 role.

23. Milwaukee Bucks (via Pelicans): Tyler Smith

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 22

Team: Ignite

Position: PF

Size: 6'9", 224 lbs

Age: 19

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Channing Frye

Tyler Smith didn't shoot as well at the combine as the Ignite highlights and numbers suggest he could. It won't mean much unless he struggles through workouts. Shotmaking is the main draw to Smith, who measured 6'9" with a 7'1" wingspan.

Limited evidence of him putting the ball down may keep teams from seeing paths to upside. Regardless, midway through the first round, interest will start to build in a stretch big with strong tools and athleticism for play-finishing around the basket.

24. New York Knicks (via Mavericks): Kyshawn George

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 24

Team: Miami

Position: SG/SF

Size: 6'7", 209 lbs

Age/Year: 20, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Dalano Banton

It seems unlikely that the New York Knicks will make both picks at No. 24 and No. 25. Regardless, Kyshawn George figures to be in play for New York and others in this range, where his handles and shooting for a big wing will look enticing.

He skipped scrimmages in Chicago and avoided risking the intrigue he built up around his enticing archetype. George expectedly underwhelmed during athletic testing, and it's that severe lack of explosion that remains worrisome for two-point scoring. But among the non-lottery prospects, he's still viewed as one of the more interesting prospects due to his experience overseas and development/evolution into a 6'7" guard who shot 40.8 percent from three.

25. New York Knicks: Tyler Kolek

May 21 mock draft spot: No. 25

Team: Marquette

Position: PG

Size: 6'1", 197 lbs

Age/Year: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Jason Preston

Miles McBride became a key member of New York's rotation, but Tyler Kolek would give it some needed playmaking/facilitating behind Jalen Brunson.

Underwhelming measurements (6'1", 6'3" wingspan) and athletic testing will keep teams' vision of Kolek as a backup. But that could still be enough to draw first-round interest, particularly from playoff teams who'll see a guard who can instantly provide pick-and-roll offense, spot-up shooting and toughness.

26. Washington Wizards (via Clippers): Carlton Carrington

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 26

School/team: Pittsburgh

Position: PG/SG

Size: 6'4", 195 lbs

Age: 18, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Nickeil Alexander-Walker

Carlton Carrington shot extremely well during shooting drills after measuring just under 6'4" in socks with a 6'8" wingspan. He's one of the draft's youngest prospects with positional size, serious shotmaking production and enough passing ability for teams to picture a point guard.

He didn't get to the rim much, and a 1.0 steal rate highlights some real concerns over his quickness for a guard. But teams won't overthink athleticism or numbers as much this late in this particular draft.

27. Minnesota Timberwolves: Jaylon Tyson

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 27

Team: California

Position: SF/PF

Size: 6'6", 218 lbs

Age/Year: 21, Junior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Caleb Martin

Jaylon Tyson figures to get looks from teams starting in the mid-to-late first round after a breakout season averaging 19.6 points and 3.5 assists.

A 30.1 percent usage on a 13-19 California team does cast a cloud over his statistical production. But the eye test clearly shows a scorer with NBA traits and skills, including 6'6" size, ball-handling for creation/playmaking and tough shotmaking.

28. Denver Nuggets: Baylor Scheierman

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 28

School/team: Creighton

Position: SF

Size: 6'6", 202 lbs

Age: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Joe Ingles

Scouts left the NBA combine more confident in Baylor Scheierman. He looked like a pro during shooting drills and scrimmages. Aside from his shotmaking, Scheierman brought in boards, made plays in ball-screen situations, scored with craft and footwork inside the arc and demonstrated vocal leadership.

He'll generate first-round consideration from multiple teams, particularly those more interested in adding a good-bet role player than chasing longer-term upside.

29. Utah Jazz (via Thunder): Johnny Furphy

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 34

Team: Kansas

Position: SF

Size: 6'8", 189 lbs

Age/Year: 19, Freshman

Nationality: Australian

Pro Comparison: Cam Johnson

Johnny Furphy's fairly simplistic and translatable combination of positional size, shooting and play-finishing could be enough for a team in the 20s. But his athletic-test results were disappointing at the combine, and a 189-pound frame at his size suggests he's at least a year from being physically ready for NBA minutes.

30. Boston Celtics: DaRon Holmes II

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 30

School/team: Dayton

Position: C

Size: 6'9", 236 lbs

Age: 21, Junior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Trayce Jackson-Davis

DaRon Holmes II made plenty of jump shots during shooting drills at the combine. And more strong shooting during workouts will continue to help, as scouts have been debating how much to buy this year's 38.6 percent mark from three.

He entered this pre-draft process with more momentum than he had last year. Improved range, handles/body control attacking the basket and passing have raised his draft stock, and he's coming off a 23-point, 11-rebound, three-assist, four-stock game with a pair of threes against Arizona in the NCAA tournament.

31. Toronto Raptors (via Pistons): Bobi Klintman

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 32

Team: Cairns Taipans

Position: SF/PF

Size: 6'9", 212 lbs

Age: 21

Nationality: Swedish

Pro Comparison: De'Andre Hunter

Bobi Klintman leaves NBA combine week as a classic fringe first-rounder—interesting enough to go in the 20s to a team that loves the big-wing archetype and two-way versatility, but not sharp enough in any one area for teams to confidently project what strengths/skills will translate.

He looked comfortable shooting in Chicago, and teams that ultimately buy his three-ball carrying over and improving could deem Klintman worth taking in the first round.

32. Utah Jazz (viz Wizards): KJ Simpson

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 31

School: Colorado

Nationality: American

Position: Guard

Size: 6'0", 187 lbs

Age/Year: 21, Junior

Pro comparison: Cole Anthony

KJ Simpson backed up the big stat lines at Colorado with a handful of blow-by drives, tough finishes and shotmaking during NBA combine scrimmages. He also got up for a 40.5-inch max vertical, which could help make up for the fact that he only measured 6'0" without shoes.

Production, creation skill, touch, range, energy and confidence could potentially sway a team to look past the underwhelming measurements.

33. Milwaukee Bucks (via Blazers): Harrison Ingram

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 33

School/team: North Carolina

Position: SF/PF

Size: 6'5", 234 lbs

Age: 21, Junior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Naji Marshall

Harrison Ingram showed off his shotmaking in one scrimmage and passing with six assists in the other game. He's earned fans with his connector skill set and strength and 7'0" wingspan for rebounding and defensive activity. Scouts don't see a likely first-round pick, with questions about his burst for blowing by or explosion at the rim. But Ingram's two-way versatility and maturity are strong enough draws to earn consideration in the 30s.

34. Portland Trail Blazers (via Hornets): Pacome Dadiet

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 29

Team: Ratiopharm Ulm

Position: SF/PF

Size: 6'8", 210 lbs

Age/Year: 18

Nationality: French

Pro comparison: Wilson Chandler

Still playing overseas, Pacome Dadiet has gradually put himself in the first-round discussion with shooting versatility, play-finishing and brief on-ball flashes for a 6'8", 18-year-old wing.

Between his age, efficient production in the German League and EuroCup and an adaptable, off-ball game, he seems to have a high floor with a path to upside if his creation evolves.

35. San Antonio Spurs: Kevin McCullar Jr.

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 35

School/team: Kansas

Position: SG/SF

Size: 6'5", 206 lbs

Age: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Josh Hart

Kevin McCullar Jr. continues to sit with a knee injury that kept him out of the NCAA tournament. He skipped drills, athletic testing and scrimmages at the combine, though it was unlikely scouts would learn anything new about the 23-year-old who attended the same event last year.

The Jayhawks ultimately looked like a different team without him, which speaks to his impact and wide-ranging contributions getting Kansas into offense, finishing plays, making shots and defending opponents' top wings.

Scouts buy his versatility and defense for a supporting NBA role, though he'll have to avoid any medical-report concerns.

36. Indiana Pacers (via Raptors): Ryan Dunn

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 36

School/team: Virginia

Position: PF

Size: 6'6", 214 lbs

Age/Year: 21, Sophomore

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Matisse Thybulle

Ryan Dunn didn't crush athletic testing like his highlights suggested he might. Still, the eye test overrules the numbers and times. His defensive court coverage and play-disrupting around the basket led to some wild steal and block rates.

He's just going to need the right roster to help mask his ball-handling and shooting limitations. Dunn will earn his minutes by finishing, guarding different positions and playmaking on defense.

37. Minnesota Timberwolves (via Grizzlies): Keshad Johnson

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 37

School/Team: Arizona

Position: SF/PF

Age/Year: 22, Senior

Size: 6'6", 224 lbs

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Robert Covington

Keshad Johnson popped numerous times in Chicago during scrimmages with his shooting, defensive playmaking and foot speed around the perimeter. He also tied for the highest max vertical at 42 inches, and he measured two of the biggest hands at the combine.

Interesting physical tools, athleticism, movement and shotmaking development should earn Johnson plenty of workouts and second-round consideration.

38. New York Knicks (via Jazz): Adem Bona

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 38

School/team: UCLA

Position: C

Size: 6'8", 243 lbs

Age: 21, Sophomore

Nationality: Turkish/Nigerian

Pro comparison: Daniel Gafford

Adem Bona measured a 7'4" wingspan, tied for the highest standing vertical and then showcased that length and athleticism on big finishes and blocks during scrimmages. The extra scoring this year at UCLA won't do much for his stock. But he still has the tools, motor, feet and leaping ability to continue making plays around the rim at both ends.

39. Memphis Grizzlies (via Nets): Cam Christie

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 39

School/team: Minnesota

Position: SG

Size: 6'5", 190 lbs

Age: 18, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Allen Crabbe

Cam Christie had a quiet NBA combine after choosing to skip scrimmaging. There is a certain lens that some scouts can look through and see upside based on his age, size, shotmaking and passing flashes. But he's being seen as a project who'll spend next year in the G League, regardless of where he's drafted.

40. Portland Trail Blazers (via Hawks): Dillon Jones

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 40

School/Team: Weber State

Position: SF

Age/Year: 22, Junior

Size: 6'5", 237 lbs

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: David Roddy

Ball-dominant at Weber State, Dillon Jones had trouble standing out in a different role at the NBA combine. On the bright side, he improved his athletic-test results across the board since last year, specifically his foot-speed times and vertical jumps.

The first round feels far-fetched, but he should get looks in the 30s and 40s from teams drawn to his unique versatility as a 237-pound playmaker, excellent rebounder and improved shooter.

41. Philadelphia 76ers (via Bulls): Jonathan Mogbo

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 47

School/team: San Francisco

Position: PF

Size: 6'6", 217 lbs

Age: 22, Junior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Kenneth Faried

Jonathan Mogbo helped his stock in Chicago, showing how he can fit without a jumper at just 6'6" in socks. He plays much bigger than his measurements around the basket. But he also showed how well he can handle in the open floor and process quickly as a passer. The tools/athleticism for scoring around the basket and playmaking ability create a unique archetype that teams will find enticing in the second round.

42. Charlotte Hornets (via Rockets): Nikola Djurisic

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 54

School/team: Mega MIS

Position: SF

Size: 6'7", 209 lbs

Age: 20

Nationality: Belgian/Serbian

Pro comparison: Tobias Harris

Nikola Djurisic had been putting up big numbers overseas, but it was more comforting for teams to see his scoring versatility come alive against projected second-round picks at the combine. He converted jumpers, finishes and passes in a variety of ways while playing with some visible confidence.

He'll have another chance to stand out next week at Eurocamp against some of the best prospects from around the world.

43. Miami Heat: Pelle Larsson

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 42

School/Team: Arizona

Position: SF

Size: 6'5", 212 lbs

Age/Year: 23, Senior

Nationality: Swedish

Pro comparison: Christian Braun

Pelle Larsson's impressive frame and versatility stood out more than his scoring in Chicago. His game feels very adaptable to the next level, even if he's missing one specialty skill. Teams should see a high-floor second-round pick who can make plays out of pick-and-rolls, threaten as a catch-and-shooter and generally make the right plays within an offense.

44. Houston Rockets (via Warriors): Melvin Ajinça

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 44

Team/nationality: Saint-Quentin

Position: SG/SF

Size: 6'7"

Age: 19

Nationality: French

Pro comparison: Evan Fournier

Melvin Ajinça missed the NBA combine for the LNB Pro A playoffs. But he's coming off one his better games, a 14-point, 12-rebound effort with four threes against ASVEL. Ajinça's shotmaking has been a draw since FIBA over the summer. Teams will be trying to decide if he's a sharp-enough shooter to compensate for his lack of creation and quickness.

45. Sacramento Kings: PJ Hall

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 45

Team: Clemson

Position: PF/C

Size: 6'8", 240 lbs

Age: 22, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Jeremiah Robinson-Earl

PJ Hall didn't scrimmage in Chicago after participating last year. There is ultimately enough game film of the senior playing against NBA-caliber bigs from the ACC. Hall will still have to sell teams on his shooting during workouts, but he's consistently improved his range, and between his physical profile and fundamentals around the post, his post scoring feels translatable.

46. Los Angeles Clippers (via Pacers): Justin Edwards

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 46

School/Team: Kentucky

Position: SF

Size: 6'6", 209 lbs

Age/Year: 20, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: James Young

Justin Edwards hit mid-range jumpers and a step-back three in the combine's opening scrimmage before missing his outside shots and struggling on Wednesday. He isn't advanced enough in any one offensive area for teams to confidently draft him with a first-round pick. He'll remain in the second-round conversation for teams willing to bet on shotmaking improvement to complement his athleticism and defensive tools.

47. Orlando Magic: Jamal Shead

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 43

School/team: Houston

Position: PG

Size: 6'0", 201 lbs

Age: 21, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Jevon Carter

Jamal Shead combined for 27 points and 10 assists in the two combine scrimmages, delivering the signature rim pressure, defensive toughness and playmaking we saw at Houston. Questions about his height and shooting may limit his first-round interest, but there are sure to be teams that see second-round value based on the likelihood that his physical driving, passing instincts and relentless ball pressure translate.

48. San Antonio Spurs (via Lakers): AJ Johnson

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 48

School/team: Illawara Hawks

Position: PG/SG

Size: 6'4", 167 lbs

Age: 19

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Jamal Crawford

AJ Johnson's ball-handling and shiftiness, passing reads, athleticism at the rim and shooting range popped at the NBA combine. His on-ball creation, scoring and playmaking flashes looked enticing for a 6'4" (in socks) 19-year-old with a 6'8" wingspan.

He'll spend next season in the G League at just 167 pounds and coming off limited minutes in Australia.

49. Indiana Pacers (via Cavaliers): Ajay Mitchell

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 50

School/team: UC Santa Barbara

Position: PG

Size: 6'3", 187 lbs

Age: 21, Junior

Nationality: Belgian

Pro comparison: Andrew Nembhard

The most impressive plays at the combine from Ajay Mitchell highlighted his playmaking, which was good to see considering he's more known for scoring. Scouts still have too many questions about his shooting and quickness/burst to give a first-round grade. But he should be on plenty of second-round boards from teams that could use another ball-handler and extra creation.

50. Indiana Pacers (via Pelicans): Jaylen Wells

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: Off the board

School/team: Washington State

Position: SF

Size: 6'7", 206 lbs

Age: 20, Junior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Duncan Robinson

From Division II to Washington State and the NBA combine, Jaylen Wells has become a second-round name for teams to consider. Scouts have started to picture a shotmaking specialist with his wing size and outstanding spot-up and pull-up shooting accuracy.

51. Washington Wizards (via Suns): Juan Nunez

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: Off the board

School/team: Ratiopharm Ulm

Position: PG

Size: 6'3", 180 lbs

Age: 19

Nationality: Spain

Pro comparison: Facundo Campazzo

NBA teams will have Juan Nunez on their radar for his crafty playmaking and elite passing skills. His modest improvement as a shooter has been promising, but he'll draw looks for his ability to set teammates up and make plays with his dribble.

52. Golden State Warriors (via Bucks): Tristen Newton

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 52

School/team: Connecticut

Position: PG

Size: 6'3", 192 lbs

Age: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Terance Mann

Tristen Newton surprised scouts when he opted to skip scrimmaging. Teams should ultimately have a confident feel for the 23-year-old's game, which played a key role during Connecticut's repeat championships.

Newton should draw second-round interest and two-way offers from teams who see a Swiss Army knife guard who can make plays for teammates, knock down shots and adapt to different roles and situations.

53. Detroit Pistons (via Knicks): Antonio Reeves

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 53

School/Team: Kentucky

Position: SG

Size: 6'5", 187 lbs

Age/Year: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Alec Burks

Antonio Reeves looked like the same scoring weapon during scrimmages that he was at Kentucky. He's clearly one of the class' top shotmakers who also has a good feel for how to get himself those catch-and-shoot, pull-up and floater chances within an offense's flow.

Age and athletic limitations won't feel alarming enough for teams to keep passing on him in the second round.

54. Boston Celtics (via Mavericks): Enrique Freeman

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 56

School/team: Akron

Position: PF

Size: 6'7", 212 lbs

Age/Year: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Joel Bolomboy

The biggest riser of the predraft process so far, Enrique Freeman turned his Portsmouth Invitational play into a G League Elite Camp invite, where he earned a call-up to the NBA combine. He wound up being one of the most productive players during scrimmages against projected second-round picks, impressing with his shooting range, post skill, finishing activity and rebounding.

Scouts believe he got himself drafted in Chicago. A second-round team will be willing to bet on his versatility, production at Akron and the story of a former walk-on.

55. Los Angeles Lakers (via Clippers): Bronny James

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: Off the board

School/team: USC

Position: SG

Size: 6'2", 210 lbs

Age: 19, Freshman

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Miles McBride

Rival teams sound uncertain about Bronny James' chances of getting drafted, though the Los Angeles Lakers remain the popular guess as to his most likely destination. If he's still on the board deep into the second round, L.A.'s front office could feel pressure to select him, considering it's essentially a risk-free pick that late, and passing at No. 55 would signal to LeBron how little the team thinks of Bronny.

However, he impressed with his shooting at the NBA combine, while James' defensive quickness popped at USC. Though he'd likely spend next year earning G League reps and the South Bay Lakers' extra attention, long term, his shotmaking, foot speed and IQ do create a viable three-and-D archetype and path to NBA success.

His draft stock and debated potential have ultimately become some of the most unique and tricky storylines of the modern NBA draft era.

56. Denver Nuggets (via Timberwolves): Oso Ighodaro

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: No. 57

Team: Marquette

Position: PF/C

Size: 6'10", 222 lbs

Age/Year: 21, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro Comparison: Brandon Clarke

On a positive note, Oso Ighodaro tied for the highest standing vertical at the combine (35") and was able to showcase the handle and passing that separates him from bigs. But he also measured just a 6'11" wingspan, easily the shortest among projected centers.

No shooting range and questionable tools for rim protection could raise some red flags. However, teams could see a place for his playmaking, signature touch shots and play-finishing from his position.

57. Memphis Grizzlies (via Thunder): Isaac Jones

May 21 Mock Draft Spot: Off the board

School/team: Washington State

Position: PF

Size: 6'8", 235 lbs

Age: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Precious Achuiwa

The clear standout at the Portsmouth Invitational, Isaac Jones moved his way up to G League Elite Camp and the NBA combine. His pitch to teams is built around his ability to guard bigs and wings and make plays with his athleticism and motor. But he also flashed enough post skill and shooting potential to possibly provide some complementary offense.

58. Dallas Mavericks (via Celtics): Jalen Bridges

May 12 Mock Draft Spot: No. 58

School/team: Baylor

Position: SF/PF

Size: 6'7", 213 lbs

Age: 23, Senior

Nationality: American

Pro comparison: Dorian Finney-Smith

Midway through the second round, teams could start thinking about the idea of an adaptable, three-and-D wing who can guard both forward spots. As a senior, Jalen Bridges shot 73-of-177 (41.2 percent) from three while showing off his length and athleticism with 57 stocks.
