2027 NBA MOCK DRAFT

---

FORWARD TYRAN STOKES | 6'7 225 LBS

Big bully, already has grown man size. He's way ahead of his peers right now, physically. Agile player that moves really well for his size. He's built like Kawhi Leonard (a healthy Kawhi, not the injured version - this guy here is durable). He has more bounce than Kawhi, this dude is jumping out of the gym. Sort of a mix between Vince Carter and Kenyon Martin. He has a long wingspan to go with elite athleticism and size. He's a franchise player, someone that can get you 25 PPG and 8+ RPG in his prime.

I think Tyran would benefit more from going to a high prestigious program like Duke or UCONN instead of a small school that will let him loose immediately.

GUARD BRANDON MCCOY | 6'4 | Committed to Duke

Best point guard in this draft! Has the ball on a string with both hands. Not only does he have elite athleticism, but he also plays hard and fast. The intensity is definitely there. He can control the tempo on offense. He really doesn't have any weaknesses. He has good size for a PG, excellent athleticism, and excellent skill to go along with it.

Doesn't surprise me at all that he's going to Duke, he's a blue chip prospect. Although, Coach Calipari over at Arkansas also would have been a great choice for a guard like him.

GUARD/FORWARD CALEB HOLT | 6'5

Very good athlete that is well put together with good size. Plays with good functional strength, aggression, and assertiveness. Has some playmaking ability with the ball in his hands. Able to get to the rim and finish. Has decent touch on his outside shots. Doesn't seem like the type to be intimidated by anybody, unphased.

GUARD JASON CROW JR | 6'3 | COMPTON, NY

Excellent point guard that can attack the defense in transition. Lefty has an excellent shot and touch on the ball. Uses screens well, gets to the basket, and can finish or distribute. Has a really good feel for the game, can control the tempo. Smooth killer with the ball in his hands.

#11

FORWARD CALEB GASKINS | 6'7 205 LBS

Good athlete that can finish with 2 hands. Broad shoulders, has NBA size. Can create his own shot from the dribble. Has a decent jump shot and touch on his shot.

Power Forward Mikka Muurinen | 6'9 200 LBS | Finland

Forward Christian Collins | 6'8 200 lbs

GUARD JORDAN SMITH JR | 6'2 175 LBS | FAIRFAX, VA

Impressive athlete that might me the most explosive in this draft. He's putting in putback slams like he's 6'7. Phenomenal athlete! Excellent rebounder that plays like he's 6'8 the way he cleans up the boards. Has nice touch on his Jay. I'd like to see him improve his handles and become more of a playmaker off of the dribble.

Guard/Forward Qayden Samuels | 6'5 200 lbs

Guard Dylan Mingo | 6'5 185 lbs

Excellent touch on his shot, great form and spin on the ball. Can hit from anywhere on the court. Can also do some playmaking off of his fakes.

Forward Toni Bryant | 6'9 200 lbs

Guard Jalen Montonati | 6'6 180 lbs

POWER FORWARD MOUSTAPHA DIOP | 6'10 200 LBS | MARIETTA, GA

Diop has some nice skill. As you can see, he has decent handles for a power forward. He moves extremely well for someone that size. He's very coordinated at 6'10, which is rare. Impacts the game in several ways, both defensively and offensively.

FORWARD ALEX CONSTANZA | 6'7 190 LBS

Gifted natural athlete with tons of untapped potential. Good length and nice touch on his 3-point shot. Solid handles, able to push the ball up the court in transition.

GUARD ELIJAH WILLIAMS | 6'5 185 LBS | PHX, ARIZONA 

Son of former Suns' coach, Monty Williams. Nice athlete, smart player. Good scorer, nice touch on his shot and able to finish inside. Good lower body strength and base, able to finish with contact.

Shooting Guard Cameron Holmes | 6'5

Another lefty that shoots the ball really well. Can create his own shot. Is a confident shooter from outside, will knock it down. Can also drive and finish inside.

Guard Ikenna Alozie

Guard Kaden House | 6'3 175 lbs

FORWARD HUGO YIMGA MOUKOURI | 6'8 | FRANCE

Smart player understands the game and where to be at. Has good length and a strong, sturdy base. Good natural strength and athleticism.

Guard Jaxon Richardson | 6'5

Son of Jason Richardson, and you can see it. Might be the bounciest player in this class. His explosive athleticism looks effortless. If he can become better off of the dribble, either as a shot creator or playmaker, he could shoot up to the top of this list. Most of his scoring comes from transition baskets, backdoor cuts, ally-oops, and putbacks. Doesn't seem to take the game too serious at times. Relies on his talent too much, needs to add more skill to his game. He's a good defender and an excellent athlete, but he's not a great half-court scorer.

His son obviously has his natural talent, but does he have the same discipline and drive that his father had? That's my big question, message me if you have the answer. I can measure a lot of things, but I can't measure heart without more in-depth knowledge about the player.

Forward Tahj Ariza | 6'6 175 LBS 

Son of Trevor Ariza. He's a lot like his dad, long and rangy. Defensive minded, moves well for his length. Nice lateral mobility, will be a great defender like his dad.

Chidi Nwigwe | 6'6 200 lbs

Guard Marcus Johnson | 6'2 175 lbs

Forward Kayden Allen | 6'5 210 lbs
