With the college basketball season officially coming to an end, all eyes are on the NBA with the playoffs set to kick off next week and the 2024 NBA Draft occurring in just over two months.

Between now and June's event, prospects will have the opportunity to meet with teams around the league and showcase their talent in workouts. Furthermore, the best prospects will get to compete in the combine as another way to increase draft stock. Even in a class that lacks a clear top pick, there's real depth. As such, even second-round picks should be of value this summer.

Leveraging Tankathon to generate our draft order, we take a look at fit and projections for this upcoming event in this iteration of Draft Digest's 2024 NBA Mock Draft.
