2023 Final Mock Draft

Last updated on June 22, 2023.

Hoops Prospects’ NBA Mock Draft differs from HP’s Draft Board.  The former is a projection of what NBA clubs will likely do in the draft, while the latter is HP’s evaluation of the best players available in the draft (rankings).  

An asterisk (*) denotes picks that are part of a pre-draft trade, which will not be official until after the draft.
