The 2017 NBA Draft crop features potential stars at the top, with plenty of big man depth later on. The following mock draft covers the first round as of June 12, 2017.
Fultz is set to go first overall to Philadelphia after the 76ers acquired the top pick from Boston. He averaged 23.2 points and 5.9 assists last season for a struggling Washington Huskies squad.
Ball is the most high-profile player available, both for his flashy game on the court and the gregarious nature of his father. Despite the distraction his father LaVar presents, the Lakers tipped their hand when they traded former first-round pick D'Angelo Russell to open up the point guard spot for Ball. Trading the pick is also still a remote possibility.
Perhaps the most athletic player on the board, Jackson showed often at Kansas his ability to take over a game. He has a well-rounded game and averaged 16.3 points and 7.4 rebounds with the Jayhawks. Boston traded back from No. 1 to No. 3, stating it'd likely take the same player with either pick.
The lanky Tatum showed a strong offensive game at Duke in his one season, averaging 16.8 points and 7.3 rebounds. He also has an outside shot, shooting 34 percent from three last season. Tatum could join the Suns, playing with young star Devin Booker.
Slightly undersized at 6-3, Fox still does a great job as a distributor and ran basically an NBA team at Kentucky. He could make an impressive backcourt with Buddy Hield.
Isaac has the potential to be a dominant player under the hoop and would be moving from down the road at Florida State if the Magic snag him at six. He averaged 12 points and 7.8 rebounds in his freshman season.
Loaded with young talent, Minnesota has a chance to add a scorer in Monk. He's undersized at 6-3 but averaged 19.8 points last season, shooting nearly 40 percent from three.
N.C. State rode Smith's all-around game in his freshman season, and he averaged 18.1 points and 6.2 assists. The Knicks could use a scorer with the likelihood that Carmelo Anthony will be traded, and young Kristaps Porzingis has also been mentioned in trade rumors.
One of the most talked about prospects on the board, Markkanen's versatility draws comparisons to Mavs veteran Dirk Nowitzki. At 7-0, he shot better than 42 percent from three last season and had more than seven rebounds per game.
An impressive scorer in his only season at UCLA, Leaf averaged 16.3 points and 8.2 rebounds per game. He doesn't have the dominant ability of former Kings star DeMarcus Cousins but should be a nice building block.
A tall point guard from Belgium, Ntilikina will be a major development project at just 18 years old. The Hornets are likely looking for backcourt help after acquiring center Dwight Howard.
A fierce scorer at Duke, Kennard averaged 19.5 points and shot nearly 44 percent from three in his sophomore season. He could be the most potent spot-up shooter on the board.
Adebayo often fell into the background at Kentucky last season behind Malik Monk and De'Aaron Fox, but he has huge ability. The 6-10 forward averaged 13 points and eight rebounds last season.
Mitchell turned into a star in his sophomore season at Louisville, averaging 15.6 points and shooting 35 percent from three. While undersized, Mitchell does have great scoring upside.
Collins really helped his draft stock with a great showing during the NCAA Tournament. He has a polished game in the paint and shot better than 65 percent during the regular season for Gonzaga. He wouldn't be going far if drafted by Portland.
The other big man for UCLA last season, Anigbogu averaged only 13 minutes per game. He will need at least a couple years to ride the bench before he's ready to play serious minutes.
Patton emerged as an under-the-radar prospect at Creighton, averaging 12.9 points and 6.2 rebounds per game. His versatility in the paint could push him up draft boards.
No player in college basketball improved more than Jackson last season, showing great versatility as a scorer fro the Tar Heels. It remains to be seen if he can be more than a scorer in the NBA, however.
Anunoby averaged only 25 minutes per game last season for an Indiana squad that missed the NCAA Tournament. His projection and length still make him an attractive player, averaged 11.1 points and shooting nearly 56 percent from the field.
Collins' per-minute production was spectacular in his sophomore season. The 6-10 forward averaged 19.2 points and 9.8 rebounds while playing less than 27 minutes per game. The ACC simply didn't have an answer for him in the paint.
Giles missed much of his freshman season at Duke due to injuries and played limited minutes when he was available. An elite recruit in last year's class, Giles still shows big upside if he can be more durable.
A 7-2 center from Latvia, Pasecniks could be more ready to contribute than big men drafted earlier due to his experience at age 21. It still remains to be seen if he will be more than bench depth, but the Nets have minutes to give him after trading Brook Lopez.
An inside force at Texas last season, Allen averaged 13.4 points and 8.5 rebounds for the Longhorns. He lacks major scoring versatility but has the potential to become a starter down the line and fills a position of need for Toronto.
Bradley is still a development project, averaging only 14.6 minutes during his rookie season at North Carolina. He was still very productive in those minutes, averaging 7.1 points and 5.1 rebounds.
Ferguson played in Australia last season, and he has the potential to be a scorer with more development time. The upside will be attractive for a Magic team that should be desperate.
Hartenstein brings impressive size and some scoring versatility with his 7-1 frame. He's an attractive upside play late in the first round.
Perhaps the most accomplished college player in the entire draft, Hart averaged 18.7 points and 6.4 rebounds in his senior season at Villanova after winning the National Championship the previous year. He's a safe bet to at least be an NBA role player.
Bell has huge defensive ability, which he put on full display in three seasons at Oregon. He averaged 8.8 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game last season, adding 10.9 points.
