2024 NBA Mock Draft: Projections With Just Over Two Months Until Event
The first round of the NBA playoffs is underway, but all 30 teams are still focused on the 2024 NBA Draft whether they're still playing or not. In just over two months, the draft will take place, which is a yearly opportunity to add talent.
Between now and June's event, prospects meet with teams around the league and have the opportunity to 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, meaning that 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.
