2019 NBA Mock Draft 2.0

With the trade deadline not too far away, it is once again time to time to take a look at how the 2019 NBA Draft might shake up for the Portland Trail Blazers and the rest of the NBA.

The Portland Trail Blazers have been exceptional lately. They have won five out their past six games and are in fourth place in the Western Conference.

Nevertheless, we have now had an extended look at the prospects in the 2019 NBA Draft with most college basketball playing around 20 games already. This draft class has a few star prospects at the top and teams like the Phoenix Suns and Cleveland Cavaliers are hoping that one of these young players will turn their respective franchises around. However, this class may not be as deep as last year’s. Nevertheless, the Portland Trail Blazers or any other playoff team should still be able to grab a difference maker if they play their cards right.

This mock draft will cover only the first round of the 2019 NBA Draft for now, and I will give a short analysis for each pick. We will do a two-round mock draft closer to draft season. Without further ado, let’s dive in.
