1st 2023 NBA Mock Draft.

1. San Antonio Spurs: Victor Wembanyama- Metropolitans 92/France

2. Charlotte Hornets: Scoot Henderson- G League Ignite

3. Portland Trail Blazers: Brandon Miller- Alabama

4. Houston Rockets: Amen Thompson- Overtime Elite

5. Detroit Pistons: Cam Whitmore- Villanova

6. Orlando Magic: Taylor Hendricks- UCF

7. Indiana Pacers: Jarace Walker- Houston

8. Washington Wizards: Anthony Black- Arkansas

9. Utah Jazz: Bilal Coulibaly- Metropolitans 92/France

10. Dallas Mavericks: Ausar Thompson- Overtime Elite

11. Orlando Magic: Derek Lively- Duke

12. Oklahoma City Thunder: Jordan Hawkins- UConn

13. Toronto Raptors: Kobe Bufkin- Michigan

14. New Orleans Pelicans: Gradey Dick- Kansas

Notes: Victor Wembanyama going to the Spurs #1 overall is a lock by now, but 2-14 are clearly still making up their minds. I can’t see Scoot Henderson & Brandon Miller slipping past picks 2 and 3, we just have to see where they end up/if trades are made. Also, I believe Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore are too talented to go past 4 and 5. As for my remaining picks except for some real intel at #9 with Bilal Coulibaly to the Jazz (via Marc Stein/hat tip to NBA_Draft on Reddit), I tried to go with fit/who I think are the best remaining lottery level players.
