Providence. Kris Dunn. 5. player. 86. . Point Guard

My Prediction:  Dragan Bender    Actual 2016 NBA Draft: Kris Dunn

In any mock draft, once you miss on one player’s position, it’s awfully difficult to right the ship the rest of the way.  So it’s not surprise that missing Bender at four (versus my projection of five) has thrown of the next pick as well.

I knew that the Timberwolves would be seeking a compliment to their young core.  If Bender was there, it would have been intriguing to see if they paired Bender with Karl Anthony Towns.  But he was not, so they paired Dunn with Andrew Wiggins

I missed by one spot.  My score is up to 21.
