2023 T10B MOCK NBA DRAFT
Synopsis: No brainer at #1 with Victor Wembanyama, who might be the most hyped draft pick ever. At a minimum, he has generated the same draft buzz as LeBron James. The 2023 NBA Draft forever will be linked to the career of the 7’4″ Frenchman. Anything short of all-time great will be a letdown. At least he’ll start his career with a great mentor in Coach Pop.
