5/28 update: Two new big boards added from Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo/ESPN and Tankathon. We now have 8 to compare for the month of May.

Reed Sheppard and Stephon Castle jumping Rob Dillingham and Nikola Topic for ESPN, while Zaccharie Risaccher, Alex Sarr and Donovan Clingan hold strong in the top 3.

5/13 update: John Hollinger/The Athletic released his annual Top 20 which is always a must read! Lots of contrarian thinking here including Ron Holland at #1 and Alex Sarr down at #5. Or how about Zaccharie Risacher at #13 and Stephon Castle at #2.

It’s already draft lottery week and we have new big boards to compare from Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, No Ceilings, Tankathon, and Jeremy Woo and Jonathan Givony/ESPN.

It’s been a while since we saw a big board from Wasserman, and this one does not disappoint, with lots of interesting picks and players that are vastly different than the others. This includes Ron Holland at #1, Jared McCain at #7 , Tyler Smith at #12, and Pacome Dadiet at #15. Great food for thought, as always!
