1. Towns
2. Okafor
3.D'Angelo Russell
4.Stanley Johnson
5.Justise Winslow
6. Emmanuel Mudiay
7. Willie Cauley Stein
8.Mario Hezonja
9. George Lucas
10. Kristaps Porzingis 
11. Kelly Oubre
12. Timothe Luwawu
13. Rondae Hollis Jefferson
14. Robert Upshaw
15. Christian Wood
16. Chris McCullough
17. Delon Wright
18. Montrezl Harrell
19. Sam Dekker
20. RJ Hunter


Mine is a bit different as I try not to follow other mock drafts that much and base mine off potential and chances of achieving that potential

Also I am not fond of a lot of prospects at the end of the lottery such as kaminsky and turner
but believe the end of the first round and start of the second round have some solid players

I am also high on a lot of the international players like George Lucas, Timothe luwawu and aleksandar vesenkov

You're way too low on Hezonja, Turner, and Dekker.

Hezonja is going to drop come draft night.  He is streaky right now and there were a few big games (one against Porzingis) he was like a ghost.   Plus he is a euro prospect

In order for Turner and Dekker to climb it means someone from my top 15 has to drop. Imo none will.   Grant and Payne are starting calibre pgs in the NBA. Upshaw and Wood will climb bc of their measurements, above the rim capability

just thought i would throw this out there....

Celts have interviewed some top 10 candidates, including Stanley Johnson, Justise Winslow, Cauley-Stein. Good sign they may trade up.

These threads of top 20 prospects that come out every year really give me a chuckle. Not one prospect has played a game, been worked out, been to the combines or done anything else in 2 months but posters have players going up and down their prospect lists.

All you are doing is reacting to DraftExpress, ESPN, and NBADraftnet mocks. That's it.

I dont think it is silly. Some study up late. I myself only start review of outside the top 100 (seniors mostly) after draft entries are official.

Its called adjusting to what is going on. Who is declaring, what happens after the combine, after workouts, tests, injuries etc.

Payne earlier this year was not even in the top 25.  But he had a great season. Smart pg that has decent size.  And now we find out decent wingspan for his height in addition (6'1.5 height, 6'7.25 wingspan).  So he is climbing.

If we are wasting our time making top 20 rankings based on what we have read. Then you are surely wasting your time commenting on us making top 20 rankings based on what we have read.

I think exercises like this are fun because you can look back after the draft or in a few years and see how well your initial rankings match up.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
