2024 NBA Mock Draft 1.0: Hornets trade No. 6 pick, Grizzlies land top star

19. Bobi Klintman, NBL | Toronto Raptors
As the Toronto Raptors look to move forward into a new era, adding a relatively raw prospect like Bobi Klintman could be intriguing. Klintman is already 21 years old, but he still needs to be developed. That said, if the Raptors can do that, he could be a quality defender and ball handler for them with a ton of size at nearly 6-foot-9.
20. Zach Edey, Purdue | Cleveland Cavaliers
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been thrown in a ton of trade rumors, and Jarrett Allen’s name has popped up. Regardless of if they trade him, bringing in Zach Ededy as a backup center makes sense, as they were rolling out Tristan Thompson in the postseason last year. Not ideal.
21. Kel’el Ware, Indiana | New Orleans Pelicans
After snagging Stephon Castle earlier in the draft, adding Kel’el Ware here could help the New Orleans Pelicans reshape their big man position around Zion Williamson. Ware’s athleticism and shooting potential could make him an ideal fit.
22. Tyler Kolek, Marquette | Phoenix Suns
The Phoenix Suns should be looking to add players who can help them win right now, and Tyler Kolek would do just that. He’s an experience college player who can shoot, playmake, and defend well for his size (6-foot-1).
