16.
Indiana Pacers: Boogie Fland, G, Arkansas 
Boogie Fland sounds like an enemy from Final Fantasy. He could be added to provide depth behind Tyrese Haliburton.

17.
Memphis Grizzlies: Liam McNeeley, SG/SF, Indiana 
The Grizzlies have many needs, which makes their reach for Zach Edey very curious. They have to find better wing play.
18.
Phoenix Suns: Jaland Lowe, G, Pittsburgh 
Here’s some better play for Phoenix’s bench, which is an area that must be repaired.
19.
Oklahoma City Thunder: Cam Scott, SG, South Carolina 
The Thunder love adding guards to their roster even though they have a billion of them. Perhaps they’ll continue to do so.
20.
Golden State Warriors: Jase Richardson, G, Michigan State 
Steph Curry doesn’t have much more time remaining in the NBA, so the Warriors may want to find a successor.
21.
Los Angeles Clippers: Asa Newell, PF, Georgia 
If Paul George leaves, Kawhi Leonard would move to small forward, opening up a need at the four.
22.
New Orleans Pelicans: Motiejus Krivas, C, Arizona 
The Pelicans may try their hand at another center so that they can make sure they find a solution at the position.
23.
Oklahoma City Thunder: William Riley, SG/SF, Illinois 
The Thunder can finally move away from adding guards to give themselves a new wing.
24.
New York Knicks: Rylan Griffen, SG, Kansas 
The Knicks need to find someone besides Jalen Brunson who can create his own shot.
25.
Dallas Mavericks: Karter Knox, SF, Arkansas
The Mavericks have two stellar guards, but they’ll need to find upgrades elsewhere.
26.
Utah Jazz: Flory Bidunga, C, Kansas
The Jazz don’t have a true center, so they may use one of their 2025 picks to address the position.
27.
New York Knicks: Kanaan Carlyle, G, Indiana 
Once again, the Knicks will have to do whatever it takes to obtain some offensive play-makers.
28.
Orlando Magic: Xavier Booker, PF, Michigan State
The Magic could use one of their two picks to add an insurance policy for Paolo Banchero.
29.
Oklahoma City Thunder: Derrion Reed, F, Alabama 
Here’s another pick the Thunder could use to obtain some depth at forward.
30.
Boston Celtics: K.J. Lewis, SG, Arizona
The Celtics have no needs, so they can draft the best player available with this pick.
