Think about this — the NBA draft is less than two weeks away. Granted, Nov. 18 is a long way from when it’s normally held at the end of June, but it sure beats not having a draft at all.
For some teams and their fans, the draft is about as good as it’s gonna get. It offers intrigue, hope and if nothing else, a reason to buy a new jersey at the team shop. (Or in the age of a pandemic, online.)
This is also the next-to-last AmicoHoops Mock Draft of the season, and the last that only includes only the first round. Without an NCAA tournament and the normal pre-draft workout buzz, it remains tough to gauge who will go where. That includes No. 1 overall.
But here is the latest attempt nonetheless.
