2025 NBA Mock Draft Roundups (By NBA Franchise)

Leading up to the 2025 NBA Draft, we will round up NBA mock drafts by franchise for a more convenient way to view who's being mocked to a franchise.

Atlanta Hawks 2025 NBA Mock Draft Roundup 1.0

The following are recent mock draft picks for the Atlanta Hawks:

For the Win — Bryan Kalbrosky

13. Khaman Maluach, Duke

South Sudan's Khaman Maluach is having an excellent, efficient freshman campaign for Duke. He is raw but has a strong defensive presence as opponents are shooting just 50.4 percent at the rim with Maluach on the floor, per CBB Analytics, which ranks 98th percentile among all players. As a lob threat, per CBB Analytics, he leads all freshmen in alley-oops completed by nearly double any other player his class.

17. Nolan Traore, Saint-Quentin (France)

Based on his priors before this season, some team is likely to take a flier on Nolan Traore in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft. But the reality is that the young French guard has simply not played very well so far this season and is likely not ready to make a positive impact in the NBA any time soon.

CBS Sports — Adam Finkelstein

14. Nolan Traore, Saint-Quentin (France)

Traore came into this draft cycle billed as a top-five pick but has not had a good season thus far in France. He's still a high-upside swing with solid size, very good speed, and real playmaking instincts for a lead guard. Defense, shooting and ball security are the swing skills that could impact his stock in the coming months.

21. Alex Karaban, Connecticut

Karaban is a smart and skilled forward who can provide some much-needed floor spacing for an Atlanta franchise that is gradually picking up some quality young assets.

2025 NBA Mock Draft Roundups - By Prospect

Leading up to the 2025 NBA Draft, we will track where several top prospects appear in recent NBA mock drafts.

Cooper Flagg NBA Mock Draft Roundup

Here are some of the latest mock drafts in which Cooper Flagg has appeared:

For the Win — Bryan Kalbrosky

Round 1, Pick 1 — Washington Wizards

If there was any doubt about whether or not Cooper Flagg deserves the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, he silenced it. Flagg recently recorded 42 points, 7 assists, and 6 rebounds versus Notre Dame. He leads all Duke players in points, rebounds, assists, blocks, and steals per game this season. Since 2009, the only freshmen with a higher box plus-minus are Zion Williamson and Anthony Davis.

CBS Sports — Adam Finkelstein

Round 1, Pick 1 — Washington Wizards

Flagg continues to get better with each passing month for Duke and seems to have gained some separation from the field in the last few weeks because of it. Flagg's versatility and the totality of his overall impact have been off the charts, and if the shooting and self-creation keep trending in the right direction, he could end up being the runaway favorite for the No. 1 pick.

2025 NBA Mock Draft

By Kevin Hanson (@EDSFootball)
Updated: December 28, 2024

With six months to go until the 2025 NBA Draft, a lot can change — obviously! — from now until draft night.

That said, here are a few notes from my initial 2025 NBA mock draft:

Rutgers hasn't had an NBA draft pick since 2010 (Hamady N'Diaye, 56th overall), and there is a (strong) chance that they will have two top-three picks next summer. In addition, they have had only three first-round picks — James Bailey (1979, 6th), Roy Hinson (1983, 20th) and Quincy Douby (2006, 19th), so they could have their two highest draft picks ever in 2025.
Duke has three lottery picks including the number one pick overall. The last school to have three lottery picks in the same draft was Duke (in 2019) with Zion Williamson (1st), RJ Barrett (3rd) and Cam Reddish (10th).
Excluding foreign-born players on college basketball teams, there are a total of six prospects in my mock currently playing basketball outside the USA.

Note: The draft order used is based on Tankathon (as of 12/28/24).

Pick	Team	Prospect
1	New Orleans Pelicans	Cooper Flagg, Duke
2	Washington Wizards	Dylan Harper, Rutgers
3	Toronto Raptors	Ace Bailey, Rutgers
4	Charlotte Hornets	Tre Johnson, Texas
5	Utah Jazz	Egor Demin, BYU
