ESPN analyst Fran Fraschilla breaks down Baylor’s Walter, Missi ahead of NBA Draft

By Michael Haag | Sports Editor

Baylor men’s basketball is no stranger to developing NBA talent.

The Bears have had 11 picks in the last 11 drafts, which is the most in the state of Texas and second most in the Big 12 since 2012. Head coach Scott Drew has built a program in which it’s no longer a surprise to see Baylor athletes walk across the stage in the summer.

Drew is going to add to that tally, as two more Bears are expected to hear their name called in the 2024 Draft, with Ja’Kobe Walter and Yves Missi both projected to be first-round picks.
