2023 Aggregate NBA Mock Draft: Brandon Miller pushing Amen and Ausar Thompson for No. 3 pick

With the NBA trade deadline approaching, the Houston Rockets, Detroit Pistons, Charlotte Hornets, and San Antonio Spurs have put themselves in the best position to land either Victor Wembanyama or Scoot Henderson, the projected top two picks of the draft.

But what happens to the teams that don’t land the first or second pick?

To better project where all the top prospects currently stand, we compiled nine mock drafts from ESPN, The Athletic, Bleacher Report, NBADraft.net, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, Yahoo, Basketball News, and USA TODAY’s For The Win.

Then, HoopsHype gathered thoughts from multiple NBA executives for their insight on the projected first-round picks for the third edition of the aggregate mock draft to find the answer.

NOTE: These rankings reflect the composite score to get a feel for the overall consensus, not our own opinion. For example, if a player was the first pick on a publication’s mock draft, he received 60 points. If a player was second, he received 59 points, and so on. We then tabulated the total number of points for each player’s consensus ranking.
