[NBA Draft]: Comparison of Actual 2023 Draft vs. Final Mock Drafts

We spend a lot of time following all of the top NBA Draft analysts for months as they post and tweet about intel and update their big boards and mock drafts leading up to draft day. But once that day comes and goes, it’s easy to shift focus to how the rookies will fit on their new rosters, summer league, and the next draft cycle, so I thought it might be nice to compile all of the final versions of these mock drafts and compare them to the actual 2023 draft order for easy reference in the future.
Here is the actual 2023 NBA Draft order versus the final mock drafts from Bleacher Report’s Jonathan Wasserman, ESPN’s Jeremy Woo and Jonathan Givony, USA Today’s Bryan Kalbrosky, SB Nation’s Ricky O’Donnell, The Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor, and The Athletic’s Sam Vecenie and John Hollinger, Tankathon.com, and our own Hoops Distillery picks:
ACTUAL Draft Order | ESPN (6/22) | Tankathon (6/22) | The Ringer (6/22) | B/R (6/22) | SB Nation (6/22) | The Athletic Vecenie (6/22) | Hoops Distillery (6/22) | The Athletic Hollinger (6/21) |

6/22 update:
6:00PM EST update: Almost time for the big show but the updates just keep on comin’! New picks from Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Ricky O’Donnell/SB Nation, Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, and Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, Jonathan Givony, Tankathon, and Jeremy Woo/ESPN. Top 8 is looking like it’s almost set across these mocks with Wemby, Scoot/Miller, Amen, Ausar, Black, Jarace, Whitmore, Hendricks.
9:00AM update: Happy Draft Day! Best day of the year, hands down. Big thanks to everyone who has supported the site (and or HooDis Twitter) throughout the season!
Well, it’s all quiet this morning after the bombshell Marcus Smart/Porzingis deal in the middle of the night, but I suspect things will start heating up soon and there will probably be one more round of mock draft updates and/or big board updates.
I figured it was only fitting to update my own picks on draft day. And with the Celtics now in control of the #25 pick, I have them taking Dariq Whitehead. Also, I had a little fun with this one more so as food for thought before the draft starts and to get away from group-think. Everyone seems super high on Anthony Black so I moved him up to #4 where Houston may trade the pick away to someone who wants him bad enough to pay up. I also have Coulibaly at #6, as he is the perfect long, athletic wing that the Magic front office always fall in love with. I still have the Thompson twins dropping down in the lottery because it makes more sense for the Jazz and Wizards, two teams who are rebuilding and have nothing to lose if either are a bust, to take a chance on developing them. I have Cam Whitmore as the one who falls the furthest since teams seem high on Bufkin and Lively. Gradey Dick and Cason Wallace are the two who I feel are the most underrated and can’t miss lottery picks. Teams will regret passing on them.

6/21 update:
5:30PM EST: Finished listening to Givony on the Lowe Post Pod and then Woo on the Hoops Collective pod and then updated our mock draft comparison yet again with fresh picks from Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo/ESPN. They now have Ausar Thompson and Anthony Black jumping Jarace Walker and Cam Whitmore. They also have Cason Wallace dropping to #18 behind Jett Howard, Keyonte George, Jalen Hood-Schifino and Jordan Hawkins. Not sure what the medicals on Wallace are saying about his back, but talent-wise (in my opinion) there is no world in which I would pick him last out of those five players.
3:30PM EST: Just added four updated mock drafts, including John Hollinger/The Athletic, Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, Bryan Kalbrosky/USA Today, and Tankathon. Lots of intel and movement happening, not surprisingly! Everyone but Tankathon has Brandon Miller at #2. Vecenie has the Thompson twins jumping Whitmore and Walker. Meanwhile, Kalbrosky has Coulibaly dropping to #16, while Vecenie has him jumping up to #10. The most interesting pick that I saw which seems like a great fit I hadn’t seen previously (or thought of) is Keyonte George to the Warriors at #19. Jaime Jaquez is moving up on all mock drafts and oddly, so is Jett Howard, after being out of favor for the last month.
1:00PM EST update: The Nuggets just made another trade! John Hollinger tweeted this: “Reminder on Denver-Indy deal: Denver-OKC trade that got that 2024 first originally likely won’t be completed till after July 1, and this trade can’t be completed until that one is.”
12:00PM EST update: looks like Wasserman updated his mock draft for the second time this morning but the only change is Dereck Lively jumping Kobe Bufkin in the late lottery (besides the write-ups/intel of course).
10:00AM EST update: Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report updated his running mock draft last night and included lots of good intel, including Cam Whitmore‘s medicals may be part of the reason for his sudden drop this week to #9 on various mock drafts. He moved Anthony Black up to #6 (similar to KOC) and Bilal Coulibaly to #10. Ausar drop to #8 on this one, while Jarace Walker moves up to #5.

6/20 update: Updated mock draft this morning from Jeremy Woo and Jonathan Givony/ESPN that is loaded with all kinds of rumors and possible movement. The big shift in the lottery is Cam Whitmore dropping to #9 as was rumored yesterday from Givony on Sportscenter. Olivier Maxence-Prosper, Jaime Jaquez and Brandin Podziemski have jumped Dariq Whitehead and Leonard Miller in the tail end of the 1st round, as playoff teams are assumed to be wanting ready-made players to step into the rotation.
Second update of the day! This one includes some stellar draft links below and a fresh mock draft from Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer. Kobe Bufkin moving up to #8 on this one, while Cam Whitmore drops to #9 (mirroring the intel from Givony). He also has Jaime Jaquez moving up to #18, jumping Gradey Dick who drops to #19 (wtf!?). Also, KOC has Noah Clowney going #14 (and Givony/Woo also had Clowney moving up to #21)

6/19 update: Two updated mock drafts for you today: Tankathon and my own. Bradley Beal got traded to the Suns yesterday which may start the dominos falling–and for this off-season, that may include Lillard, Zion, Siakam, Grant Williams, Harrison Barnes, and many more. Buckle up and remember to consume responsibly this week as the proverbial firehose of NBA draft and free agency rumors will be on full strength!

6/17 update: Three new mock drafts in recent days, including updates from Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report and Bryan Kalbrosky/USA Today. Kalbrosky has moved Kobe Bufkin up to #8 and Bilal Coulibaly to #9, while Taylor Hendricks dropped down to #12. Meanwhile, Wasserman has Scoot moving back up into the #2 slot, and Kobe Bufkin moving up to #12. O’Connor also has Coulibaly moving up to #9 and Anthony Black up at #6, while Gradey Dick dropped to #15. Interestingly, all three of these mock drafts have Keyonte George in the #14 to #16 range, in stark contrast to picks over the 7-10 days where he had dropped to the mid-20’s.

6/16 update: Fresh mock draft update from Sam Vecenie/The Athletic who has Amen Thompson going to Orlando at #6 and Dereck Lively and Jalen Hood-Schifino moving up into the tail end of the lottery and Jaime Jaquez moving up to #22. Keyonte George dropping all the way down to #27–which makes him the player with the most pick variance across all mock drafts (see updated pick variance chart below). Also check out Vecenie’s entertaining live mock draft pod with Coach Spins from last night.
6/14 update: A very meaty, updated mock draft was just posted this morning from Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo/ESPN which has Dereck Lively and Kobe Bufkin moving back into the lottery, Keyonte George dropping to the 20’s, and Colby Jones and Brice Sensabaugh dropping into the 2nd round. Sounds like many of the teams with multiple picks (Hornets, Jazz, Pacers, Rockets, Nets) are all looking to package picks and trade up. They say Jonathan Kuminga may be available from the Warriors who are looking to move up, and also that the Pistons may look to package Bojan Bogdanovic and #31 for Tim Hardaway and #10 from the Mavericks.

6/12 update: New mock draft released today by Ricky O’Donnell/SB Nation. Similar to Bryan Kalbrosky/USA Today, he has Amen Thompson going #3 to pair with Dame Lillard. But in contrast to Kalbrosky, O’Donnell has Brandon Miller dropping to Houston at #4. This draft discussion with Ricky O’Donnell/SB Nation on the Rose Garden Report with Sean Highkin was excellent! O’Donnell goes into detail about his thoughts on the Thompson twins outlook and why is a bit lower on Miller.
6/10 update: Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer has a 6/9 mock draft update, but I see no difference other than Brandin Podziemski moving into the 21st slot to Brooklyn and Dariq Whitehead dropping to the 2nd round. Also, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report pinned his mock to his twitter feed and turned the June article into a running mock draft which he’ll update periodically. As of 6/5 he updated the following: Bilal Coulibaly rose to 11, Ben Sheppard‘s moved up to 19, and Jett Howard dropped to 29.

6/7 update: Added new picks from Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer via his NBA Draft Guide. I also added updated Hoops Distillery picks. Very interesting debate emerging as to who goes #4. KOC had Amen Thompson on past mock drafts, but changed his pick to Cam Whitmore this month, while I had Taylor Hendricks but updated my pick to Jarace Walker. Any of those players would be solid picks for Houston, but Amen doesn’t make sense with James Harden coming back (since he is not a PG and not a great shooter), so the question becomes who is the best front court piece or will they just trade the pick to get more vets? In the end, I don’t fully trust Whitmore and think Walker is the better fit to bolster the defense, as they will need it with Harden/Jalen Green up top.
The draft is only 18 days away! The combine and pro days are in the rearview mirror, so it’s time for fresh picks to analyze and compare from Tankathon, Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo/ESPN, Bryan Kalbrosky/USA Today, and Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report.
As you know, updates come fast and furious in the final two weeks before the draft so bookmark this page and keep referring back, or follow me on Twitter and set alerts for updates. I’ll also be posting big board comparisons throughout the month, ending with my ‘final mock drafts vs. actual picks’ piece.
There’s a lot of movement happening. Some of this is intel-based, some of it may be overthinking, and some of it may be workout-influenced. The #2 pick chatter seems to have tilted in Brandon Miller‘s favor, while Cam Whitmore has moved up to #5 for the Pistons over Jarace Walker after Walker cancelled his pro day and sparked rumors that he has a promise from someone. Meanwhile, Cason Wallace is dropping like a rock (#17 for ESPN and #15 for B/R). JHS has moved up to #9 for ESPN and USA Today has Scoot dropping to #4 (assuming Portland keeps their pick and goes with Amen Thompson, the better fit). Buckle up and enjoy.

May 22nd update: Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report has updated picks as of 5/21 along with his Draft Combine stock watch. Scoot and Brandon Miller switched spots at #2 and #3. And Ben Sheppard and Amari Bailey have climbed into his 1st round. He already had Podziemski at #20 pre-combine. Oddly, he has Kobe Bufkin dropping from #15 in his 5/16 mock to #30.
A memorable Draft Lottery night has passed and the Spurs are the big winners of the much anticipated Wemby sweepstakes. Meanwhile, Portland lucked out and moved up to #3 while Houston and Detroit dropped to #4 and #5, respectively. With this year’s draft order officially locked in, it’s time to compare the new batch of mock drafts that were posted last night to sort out who will do what after Wemby is off the board. We have new picks from all of the best: Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo/ESPN, Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, Ricky O’Donnell/SB Nation, Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, and Bryan Kalbrosky/USA Today, And I’ve added my own updated Hoops Distillery mock draft as a cherry on top!

[NBA Draft]: 2023 Big Board Comparison, April
The pre-draft process has officially begun and we have three new big boards to compare Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express, and Tankathon.
[NBA Draft]: 2023 Mock Draft Comparison, April

[NBA Draft]: 2023 Big Board Comparison, March (updated 3/21)
With March Madness on the horizon we have a new batch of big boards to compare including picks from Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, and the best available from Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express. Will Brandon Miller overtake Scoot for the #2 spot?

It’s Draft Lottery Day and everyone is at the Combine, so no better time to dig into the updated big boards from the last few days. We have a bunch of big boards to compare including Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, Tankathon, and Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo/ESPN (from their Best Available page on 5/15).
KOC and Givony both have Brandon Miller at #2 over Scoot, and Wasserman has Amen Thompson at #3 over Miller. As for clear trends happening across these boards, Cam Whitmore and Taylor Hendricks have moved up into the top 10, while Leonard Miller, Bilal Coulibaly, and Kobe Bufkin have moved up most boards into the top 20. Out of nowhere newcomer is Bobi Klintman from Wake Forest who will not be attending the Combine and may have a promise from someone in the 1st round.
There are some very clear opinions rounding into form in terms of which analyst prefer:
- Jarace Walker vs. Taylor Hendricks vs. Cam Whitmore
- Cason Wallace vs. Anthony Black
- Amen Thompson vs. Brandon Miller
Meanwhile, Gradey Dick still seems too low to me, in the 10-12 range.
There will be more big boards posted in the coming weeks, so make sure to check back for updates and follow me at @hoopsdistillery on Twitter for update notifications. Also, if I’m missing any big boards that you feel belong alongside the ‘All-NBA level’ draft analysts I currently include, leave a comment or DM me on Twitter.

We have three new big boards to analyze, post-March Madness, including Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Tankathon, and Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express (from his Best Available page on 4/5). KOC still has Brandon Miller at #2 over Scoot. He also has Taylor Hendricks way up at #8. Other than that, there’s a decent amount of agreement in the top 15.
Side note: please tweet @draftexpress if you are like me and would like a way to order Draft Express merch. My DX shirt finally wore out and I would love to replace it while supporting Jonathan.
Side note to the side note: please tweet @NBA and Adam Silver if you would like NBA Draft Combine merch to be sold in the NBA store. This is a complete no-brainer that is long overdue!

[NBA Draft]: 2023 Big Board Comparison, December 2022 (updated 1/8)
We finally have a few 2023 big boards to stack up against each other. So, here’s our first #bigboardcomp of the year featuring boards from Sam Vecenie/The Athletic, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express and Tankathon.

Note: If the table is not loading correctly on your mobile device via Twitter, then copy and paste this link in your browser and view the post on my site at https://hoopsdistillery.com/mockdraftcomp-apr23/.
4/13 update: New picks from Jonathan Givony/ESPN-Draft Express and the newly hired, Jeremy Woo (!!!) are here, and it’s a doozy! They have Jordan Hawkins going at #11 to Orlando and Noah Clowney at #16 to Utah. I also posted my new picks for April, highlighted by Bilal Coulibaly moving up to late lottery. Too high? Yes, buuut, for those teams that are higher on him than other options, they may as well take him if he’s projected to be a lottery pick next year anyway. I have him going to OKC, who we know has great patience in player development.
Also, ICYMI, both Kyle Filipowski and Donovan Clingan, announced they’ll be returning to school next year which opens up two spots in the 1st round.
Updated pick variance chart added for April. Easy to see that there’s lots of disagreement after the top 10 guys.
After some highly entertaining March Madness action on the men’s and women’s sides, UCONN and LSU were crowned champions for 2023. And now that we’re officially into April’s pre-draft season a batch of new mock drafts have been released to compare and analyze including picks from Kevin O’Connor/The Ringer, Jonathan Wasserman/Bleacher Report, Tankathon and Ricky O’Donnell/SB Nation.
Some notable movement across these mocks, including Taylor Hendricks moving up to #6 and Cason Wallace at #9 for Wasserman; Kyle Filipowski at #13 and Dereck Lively at #15 for KOC; and Dariq Whitehead moving up to #10 for O’Donnell. Jalen Hood-Schifino has come back down to earth across the board in the 16-22 range, and for the first time we’re seeing Donovan Clingan from the champion Huskies make an appearance in the 1st round, going as high as #19 for KOC. Also worth noting that talk of Brandon Miller at #2 has cooled completely after a sub-par tourney run with an injured groin.
