Heading into the holidays, the 2024 NBA draft landscape remains uncertain, with no clear favorite for the top pick and no solid order throughout much of the pool of prospects this early in the season the Boston Celtics and rest of the league to consider. The absence of a standout No. 1 overall candidate means that team needs and the lottery order could heavily influence the selection, with a trickle-down effect making this an especially volatile draft class in terms of making predictions.
Given all of that, perhaps as much as any time in recent memory, it is clearly much too early to make any concrete projections about which ball clubs might take which players given more collegiate play will only help solidify such estimations.
But that doesn’t stop draft experts from plying their craft, and we are already seeing the first serious mock drafts coming out.
