Rip City Project

● By Reese Kunz
There's less than a week until the 2024 NBA Draft, with the first round being held on Wednesday, June 26th, and the second round taking place the following day, Thursday, June 27th. It's a notoriously weak and somewhat unpredictable draft class. However, some teams' potential selections are becoming more apparent or at least getting narrowed down as draft day approaches. Many prospects projected to go early in the draft have some sort of question mark. As a result, we could see positional runs and surprising players falling outside of the lottery, especially given how the lottery played out regarding the draft order and teams' needs.
