2020 NBA Mock Draft: Which Lottery Team Lands LaMelo Ball? - Bleacher Report

Terrance Williams/Associated Press

21. Philadelphia 76ers (via Thunder): Tyrell Terry (Stanford, PG, Freshman)

Terry's NBA fan club has grown since he started the season off the radar. His high skill level as a shooter, finisher and passer, along with his basketball IQ and competitiveness, have eased concerns over his 6'1", 160-pound frame and limited athleticism.

      

22. Denver Nuggets (via Rockets): Jaden McDaniels (Washington, SF/PF, Freshman)

McDaniels' shooting at 6'9" is his biggest selling point. It became tougher to buy that the flashes of ball-handling and shot-creation will work at the NBA level, but his touch from the 4 spot seems convincing enough for a team that wants additional shot-making and space.

        

23. Utah Jazz: Josh Green (Arizona, SG, Freshman)

At baseline, it's easy to picture Green contributing in a supporting NBA role with his explosiveness for transition offense, elite defensive quickness and 43.9 percent spot-up jumper. How high he climbs will come down to his development off the dribble, creating shots and hitting pull-ups.

      

24. Milwaukee Bucks (via Pacers): RJ Hampton (New Zealand Breakers, SG, 2001)

Teams' level of interest in Hampton has faded as they've struggled to identify what skill or strength they can bank on. His combination of explosiveness and backcourt versatility remains intriguing, however, as Hampton is a jet in transition, a ball-screen playmaker and a capable set shooter.

      

25. Oklahoma City Thunder (via Nuggets): Daniel Oturu (Minnesota, C, Sophomore)

Compared to Steven Adams, Oturu can give Oklahoma City a more versatile scoring threat away from the basket. He lacks discipline with his shot selection, but the Thunder's veteran leadership and coaching staff seem like a good match.

        

26. Boston Celtics: Zeke Nnaji (Arizona, C, Freshman)

Nnaji would have a defined role that values his offensive rebounding and timing as a cutter and post player. But drafting him first-round means buying that his mid-range touch translates and eventually extends to the arc.

        

27. New York Knicks (via Clippers): Cassius Stanley (Duke, SF, Freshman)

The Knicks lack wings and could be drawn to Stanley's elite athletic ability. He shot 36.0 percent from three at Duke and delivered enough flashes of energetic defense, though the hope would be for Stanley to show more creativity and shot-making than he did in college.

       

28. Los Angeles Lakers: Cassius Winston (Michigan State, PG, Senior)

Teams love Winston's maturity and leadership, and his shooting makes it easier to look past his athletic limitations. While most may have a tough time drafting a 22-year-old point guard, all it takes is the right team to see a value pick and NBA-ready contributor.

        

29. Toronto Raptors: Jahmi'us Ramsey (Texas Tech, SG, Freshman)

The Raptors would look past Ramsey's lapses in shot selection and defense and value his mix of strength and shot-making. A few years of development could lead Ramsey to carve out a regular role as a scoring and shooting specialist.

       

30. Boston Celtics (via Bucks): Tre Jones (Duke, PG, Sophomore)

The Celtics could see an immediate contributor to their rotation in Jones, who'd add IQ and defensive toughness. While scouts question his ability to score, in Boston, he could focus on passing and pressuring the ball.
