2025 NBA Mock Draft 2.0
On June 25 and 26, the NBA will hold its annual draft (held over two days), pulling from an incredible domestic and global talent pool. As prospects continue to play, how do they rank as potential draft prospects? Ten Sports Business Classroom alumni (Elias Eldridge, Diego Torres, Gabriel Mendez, Max Rosenberg, Brandon Heimsoth, Anirudh Kantareddy, Nicholas Brack, Vinay Shah, Richie Martin and Mohamed Farih) have put together their first collaborative mock draft, without considering team needs at this early stage. Version 1.0 was a non-collaborative ranking based on individual boards. Click through each player for a scouting report (check back as the library grows leading up to the draft).
