DRAFT WATCH #3: Mock drafts offer few clues about Nets intentions

At this point in time — and really until the night of June 21 — the only relevant mock drafts are the ones you can’t access, the individual teams’ assessments, 1 through 60, of 2018 Draft talent. Those are stored on computers from Boston to L.A.

For example, in 2016, the Nets reportedly had Caris LeVert at No. 11 while the highest any draftnik projected the often injured Michigan wing was 38th. Isaiah Whitehead, who most mocks had in the 40’s and 50’s, was reportedly 18th on the Nets board. In both cases, the Nets moved up on Draft Night to take them, LeVert at 22; Whitehead at 42.
