NBA Mock Draft: Blazers Take Top Incoming Freshman
The Portland Trail Blazers are slated to have a high pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Here’s a look at who the team took in the lottery of Bleacher Report’s latest mock draft from Jonathan Wasserman:
No. 3 pick Ace Bailey, Rutgers
Ace Bailey possesses optimal ingredients for NBA scoring with 6’10” wing size, advanced self-creation and lethal shotmaking from the post to well beyond the arc.
How efficient he is at converting will determine whether he winds up a favorite at No. 2 or somewhere in the Nos. 3-5 range. But even some off-putting shot selections won’t blind teams from such an obvious package of natural talent and offensive skill.
Bailey’s height, one-on-one game and shooting form one of the NBA most enticing archetypes.
The only prospects to go ahead of Bailey were Duke freshman Cooper Flagg and Bailey’s Rutgers teammate Dylan Harper.
BE community, what do you think of Bailey as a prospect? Chime off in the comments below.
