OK, I’m gonna have a little fun and get a little weird here. If I’m just going fully with my gut instinct on which players from this draft will end up having the best NBA careers it would look something like the list below. Some of these rankings are in-line with consensus, while some are way off from consensus. This list will probably look ridiculous on draft day and also one year out from draft day. But hopefully it looks less and less ridiculous over time. Time will tell 🙂 It starts with three French players at the top, followed by the two UConn stars. The talent coming out of France recently has been insanely good and that trend is set to continue this year (and in 2025 for that matter) with Sarr, Risacher and Salaun topping the list. Stephon Castle and Donovan Clingan both made major moves up draft boards over the course of the 2023/24 season.
