My first full Big Board for 2023-24!

This is a wide open draft without a clearcut No. 1 pick, so expect a lot of changes between now and June.

21. Kyle Filipowski - This season, Filipowski has his sights set on securing a spot in the lottery and will be looking to lift his draft stock with improved efficiency beyond the arc and around the rim.

22. Oso Ighodaro - Ighodaro is an athletic finisher who ranked among the most efficient pick-and-roll scorers in college basketball last season, and a solid interior defender who can switch out and defend guards in isolation.

23. Bobi Klintman - After generating significant draft buzz last spring, Klintman surprisingly chose to play this season in Australia, where he'll be one of several NBL prospects scouts will be traveling Down Under to evaluate.

24. Trevon Brazile - Before the injury, Brazile wowed NBA scouts with a mix of explosive plays above the rim, shot-blocking, defensive versatility, and floor-spacing potential.

25. Baba Miller - Miller is an alluring prospect due to his guard-like skills on a 6'11” frame. Scouts are fond of his blend of size, length, ball handling, shooting upside and basketball IQ.

26. Omaha Biliew - Biliew is one of the biggest wildcards in this class, as he could be in the lottery discussion next June or considered a multi-year project.

27. Kel’el Ware - Ware's mix of size, length, and mobility is alluring to NBA decision-makers, as he has the tools to become a superb pick-and-roll defender and paint protector.

28. Tidjane Salaun - A French teenager, Saluan is an excellent long-term prospect who flashes two-way potential and still has significant margins for improvement. He's tough and bouncy, and he can finish at the rim with authority and knock down perimeter shots.

29. Adem Bona - Bona is still raw offensively, scoring only from lobs, hustle plays, and hard rolls to the basket. However, he has an opportunity to carve out a role as an energetic defensive anchor.

30. Alexandre Sarr - Sarr has everything you'd want in a modern NBA big man: excellent size at 7'1, with a 7'5" wingspan, plus he's mobile and coordinated with impressive footwork and a soft touch around the rim. Sarr can also post up, space the floor, make the right reads, handle the ball and defend.
