The 2018 NBA Draft is just over two weeks away, and now that the early entrant withdrawal deadline has passed, we can start taking mock drafts a little more seriously (and I do mean “little”).
Since deciding to stay in the draft, Jarred Vanderbilt now appears in all of the major mock drafts that include second rounds, ranging anywhere from No. 44 (Washington) to No. 55 (Charlotte). Consensus continues to be that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will go to the Los Angeles Clippers with the twelfth or thirteenth pick, but the latest Sporting News mock has him sneaking into the top ten, going eighth to Cleveland.
