2018 NBA Mock Draft 6.0
The Lakers go Best Player Available with the best international prospect outside of Doncic. Musa isn’t much of a defender, but he’s one of the best individual scorers in the 2018 class. That alone should give him some significant traction late in the first round.
Putting up solid numbers overseas, Musa is a capable shooter whose crafty ball handling and advanced scoring instincts should allow him to provide a spark off the bench at the next level, if nothing else.
If he can create for others more frequently, add strength to his frame, and become even a passable defender, Musa has the chance to be a really solid NBA player. He might outperform his draft slot if he falls this far.
