NBA mock draft: CBS Sports projects Cassius Winston, Xavier Tillman as first-round picks

We’re less than two months away from the NBA draft on Oct. 16.

The Minnesota Timberwolves own the first pick after winning last week's draft lottery. No one expects Michigan State’s Xavier Tillman or Cassius Winston to be drafted there, but the duo is getting plenty of love in mock draft projections late in the first round or sometime in the second round.

Let's see where things stand with Tillman and Winston.

CBS Sports: Xavier Tillman to the Boston Celtics at No. 26, Cassius Winston to the Toronto Raptors at No. 29

CBS Sports is the only mock draft we've seen out there that has both the 6-foot-8, 245-pound Tillman and the 6-1, 185-pound Winston going in the first round.
