Here is our initial 2019 NBA Mock Draft. Team needs and tendencies have loosely been taken into consideration yet.

Draft order is based on the reverse standing as of the morning of Jan. 8th. We'll update the draft order more frequently at the beginning of the season as one or two wins/losses can really change the order.

We've added videos, profiles and stats (if available) for all players in our first round mock.

Mock Draft - 1st round updated on Jan. 8th.
