The Oklahoma City Thunder’s surprising success has caused fans to shift from focusing on the draft to the standings.
Despite that, ESPN draft expert Jonathan Givony published his latest 2023 mock draft this past Saturday and included a couple of Thunder selections.
As a quick reminder, the Thunder own draft swap rights to the LA Clippers’ first-round pick, which means they get to keep the higher of the two first-round picks (theirs or LA’s).
In this exercise, the Thunder kept their own pick at No. 6 because the Clippers’ pick landed at No. 23.
The Thunder also own their own second-round pick.
Let’s take a look at who Givony has the Thunder taking with their two draft picks in this mock draft.
