1. Atlanta Hawks Atlanta Hawks: Zaccharie Risacher, F, France France
Back-to-back French big men going No. 1 overall may not be the best look for the NBA, but Zaccharie Risacher and Alex Sarr are the two favorites to be the top pick in the wake of the Hawks’ surprise victory in the draft lottery. Atlanta has two great guards, but needs better interior play.

2. Washington Bullets Washington Bullets: Alex Sarr, C, France France
The Bullets didn’t get the top pick, but they sort of do because they’re landing Alex Sarr, who easily could be the top selection in the 2024 NBA Draft.

3. Houston Rockets Houston Rockets: Reed Sheppard, G, Kentucky
The Rockets have Fred VanVleet at point guard, but he’ll be a 31-year-old entering his contract year soon. The Rockets may want to obtain a point guard for the future.

4. San Antonio Spurs San Antonio Spurs: Stephon Castle, PG, Connecticut
There are three talented point guards in this draft, and they could go in any order. I imagine the Spurs would want one of them to upgrade Tyus Jones.

5. Detroit Pistons 2024 NBA Mock Draft Detroit Pistons: Matas Buzelis, SF, USA USA
The Pistons need lots of help. One area is a two guard, as Detroit sorely needs a better backcourt mate for Cade Cunningham. They could use another wing to pair with Ausar Thompson as well.

6. Charlotte Hornets Charlotte Hornets: Tidjane Salaun, SF, France France
The Hornets have LaMelo Ball … and that’s about it in the backcourt. They could use an upgrade next to Ball. They could also pursue a wing, or a center, or really anything.

7. Portland Trailblazers Portland Trailblazers: Donovan Clingan, C, Connecticut Connecticut
Is DeAndre Ayton the long-term answer for the Blazers at center? We’ll find out if they draft a young player to eventually take over with this pick.

8. San Antonio Spurs San Antonio Spurs: Dalton Knecht, SG/SF, Tennessee Tennessee
The Spurs used their first pick in the top eight on a new point guard. They can use their second choice on a new wing, which must be addressed as well.

9. Memphis Grizzlies Memphis Grizzlies: Cody Williams, SF, Colorado Colorado
The Grizzlies need to get better at the wing if they want to contend if/when Ja Morant returns to action.

10. Utah Jazz Utah Jazz: Ronald Holland, SF, USA USA
The Jazz could go with the best player available. That could be a wing to push Lauri Markkanen to the four.

11. Chicago Bulls Chicago Bulls: Devin Carter, G, Providence Providence
The Bulls needed to get Alex Caruso out of the starting lineup before he was traded, so the position could still be targeted.

12. Oklahoma City Thunder Oklahoma City Thunder: Nikola Topic, PG, Serbia Serbia
The Thunder aren’t getting a starter at No. 12, but they could stand to add some quality backcourt depth with this pick.

13. Sacramento Kings Sacramento Kings: Ja’Kobe Walter, SG, Baylor
The Kings were able to re-sign Malik Monk, but they could still address the backcourt.

14. Portland Trailblazers Portland Trailblazers: Kyshawn George, SG, Miami
The Blazers need help everywhere, so top need isn’t going to dictate the 14th pick in the draft.

15. Miami Heat Miami Heat: Rob Dillingham, PG, Kentucky Kentucky
The Heat acquired Terry Rozier last season. He was a temporary solution at the position. Here’s an answer for the long haul.
