Four teams remain in the NCAA Tournament, with just three games remaining in the season. As such, the vast majority of collegiate prospects who will be testing the draft waters in the coming months have already concluded their seasons. Even then, there are still many quality players in the Final Four who will look to continue increasing their stocks.

The cast of players projected to be available at the top of the 2025 NBA Draft appears to be much better than last summer, with Cooper Flagg and Dylan Harper headling this class. Beyond those two, there are several other players who can really move the needle for an NBA team if selected into the right system.

Let’s take a look at fit and projections for this upcoming event in this iteration of Draft Digest's 2025 NBA Mock Draft.
