ESPN’s Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo released a new NBA mock draft on Monday morning, factoring in the latest rumors about Wednesday’s first round.
Several picks after the duo slotted Jared McCain to the Philadelphia 76ers with the 16th overall pick, Givony and Woo paired Kyle Filipowski with the Milwaukee Bucks with the 23rd pick.
The Bucks, now led by two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo and seven-time All-NBA guard Damian Lillard, actually hosted McCain for a workout earlier in the process, but now Woo thinks they might circle the other Blue Devil on the board.
“Filipowski primarily conducted workouts for teams selecting inside the top 20, but he looks to have a wide range of outcomes on draft night,” Woo wrote. “He worked out for every team in the Nos. 9-to-13 range, but teams selecting in the 20s are also speculating he might be available to them.”
As a sophomore last season, Filipowski averaged 16.4 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game.
The NBA draft begins on Wednesday.
