NBA Draft 2019: Mock Draft 6.0
46. player. 38. . Guard, 2000. Brewster Academy. Jalen Lecque
Standing 6-foot-3 with a 43-inch vertical, Jalen Lacque is making the prep-to-pros transition after graduating high school last year. Orlando takes the plunge on an uber-athletic, but raw lead guard.
47. player. 67. . Guard, Jr.. St. John's. Shamorie Ponds
The Kings add point guard depth behind De’Aaron Fox, drafting an accomplished bucket-getter in Shamorie Ponds.
Wing, So.. Gonzaga. Zach Norvell Jr.. 48. player. 77.
Zach Norvell Jr. offers L.A. a strong complementary shooter on offense — one who can fill it up in a hurry, hitting contested shots at a high clip.
49. player. 29. . Forward, Jr.. Michigan. Isaiah Roby
A versatile forward who should defend switches at a high level, Isaiah Roby makes for a nice role player in Gregg Popovich’s system.
Forward, Sr.. Arizona State. Zylan Cheatham. 50. player. 100.
One of the draft’s most intriguing defensive prospects, Zylan Cheatham has earned comparisons to a lesser version of Draymond Green.
51. player. 18. . Forward, 2000. Roseto. Paul Eboua
The Celtics stash a pick in Paul Eboua, a 6-foot-7 athlete with long-term appeal. He’s from Cameroon, the same country as Joel Embiid and Pascal Siakam.
Miye Oni. 52. player. 170. . Wing, Jr.. Yale
A versatile wing who thrived in the Ivy League, Miye Oni presents another potential boost to Charlotte’s perimeter ranks.
Guard, So.. LSU. Tremont Waters. 53. player. 118.
Despite standing just 5-foot-10, Tremont Waters has a path to NBA success due to his dynamic pull-up shooting and high-I.Q. passing. The Jazz need a point guard and take a flyer in the second round.
Yovel Zoosman. 54. player. 93. . Wing, 1999. Maccabi Tel Aviv
A fluid lefty shooter and smart overall player, Yovel Zoosman represents a draft-and-stash candidate for the Sixers, who can’t afford to roster every second-round pick in a win-now season.
. Guard, Jr.. Auburn. Jared Harper. 55. player. 27
Another diminutive lead guard, Jared Harper led the charge during Auburn’s surprise Final Four run. His pull-up shooting and playmaking chops earned second-round looks.
77. . Forward, So.. San Diego State. Jalen McDaniels. 56. player
A versatile forward who began the season much higher on draft boards, Jalen McDaniels is an upside play for Los Angeles in the mid-50s.
. Wing, Fr.. Michigan. Ignas Brazdeikis. 57. player. 69
A talented shooter who broke out as a freshman, Ignas Brazdeikis gives New Orleans another perimeter threat to pair with Zion in the 2019 class.
Alen Smailigic. 58. player. 41. . Forward, 2000. Santa Cruz Warriors
Alen Smailigic was the youngest player in the G-League last season, earning positive reviews as part of the Santa Cruz Warriors. Reports are that Golden State wants to continue that partnership by retaining his rights.
Jaylen Hoard. 59. player. 81. . Forward, Fr.. Wake Forest
Similar to McDaniels, Jaylen Hoard began the season in most pundits’ top-30. He’s still a versatile athlete at the four spot who could catch Masai Ujiri’s eye.
67. . Wing, Sr.. Florida State. Terance Mann. 60. player
A combine standout, Terance Mann has showcased his toughness and basketball I.Q. to prospective employers during the pre-draft process. It earns him a spot in the second round.
