Bleacher Report posted a 2020 NBA mock draft today in honor of 26 of 30 NBA teams having their first regular-season game. For fan bases like ours, it’s never too early to be looking ahead at the prospects that’ll be available in June.
Jonathan Wasserman has the Charlotte Hornets picking #1 based off of Caesar’s sportsbook in Vegas’ win-total lines; whether or not the lottery actually plays out in their favor remains to be seen. I doubt they’ll be the worst team in the league, and I also doubt that Dan Gilbert doesn’t pay off Adam Silver and get Cleveland their 12th #1 pick in the past decade, but it’s nice to dream.
