The 2020 NBA Draft should have happened already but due to COVID-19 affecting the schedule of the league’s regular season, with the finals about to begin between the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat, it was moved to November 18.
It hasn’t made a difference in Isaac Okoro’s draft stock. In the latest NBA draft big board by The Rookie Wire, the former Auburn star and one-and-done is listed as the eighth best player available.
Wing, 6-foot-6, 19 years old
CONSENSUS PROJECTION: Top 10
REPRESENTATION: Young Money APAA
Auburn’s Isaac Okoro is arguably the most athletic player in the 2020 NBA Draft and as a defensive wunderkind, he can guard the perimeter and the ball handler in pick-and-roll sets. He has excelled when driving to the basket as a finisher on offense, but an unproven ability to score otherwise will limit what he can be in the NBA until further developed.
Also listed in the top 100 is Austin Wiley who comes in at No. 98.
