Big Board 2.0: Part 2 - Who’s Climbing the Boards?
A fluid, ever-changing list of NBA prospects outside the lottery.
Welcome to Part 2 of my Big Board 2.0, where I dive into the second half of my top 30 prospects. The first installment featured the players I view as lottery picks—the top 14 talents in this year’s draft class. In this follow-up, I share my personal thoughts and evaluations on the prospects ranked 15 through 30. These rankings are based on my opinions and insights, and, as always, this list is fluid and subject to change as the season unfolds. In fact, several players featured on Big Board 2.0 weren’t included in the initial version, which highlighted only 25 prospects.
With new performances and emerging talent, this updated ranking reflects where I currently stand on the next wave of NBA prospects.
