Minnesota Timberwolves: Two-Round 2020 NBA Mock Draft 2.0
The NBA Draft is one month closer, though it is still unbelievable it is happening as late as October. With the NBA’s bubble restart plan in full swing (without the Minnesota Timberwolves involved), it’s interesting to look at what could go down following the season.
The draft order of this mock draft will be determined by using Tankathon’s lottery simulator. The results go as follow:
1. Cleveland Cavaliers
2. Golden State Warriors
3. Atlanta Hawks
4. Washington Wizards
6. Detroit Pistons
7. New York Knicks
8. Chicago Bulls
9. Charlotte Hornets
10. Phoenix Suns
11. San Antonio Spurs
12. Sacramento Kings
13. New Orleans Pelicans
14. Portland Trail Blazers
The only major changes in this order (or the lottery in general) is that the bottom two teams are the most likely to change. The Memphis Grizzlies are within striking range of both the Portland Trail Blazers and New Orleans Pelicans. While the Washington Wizards have a chance to unseat the Brooklyn Nets, not having John Wall, Bradley Beal, or Davis Bertans will severely hinder their odds of doing so.
The Minnesota Timberwolves should maintain all three of their picks going into the draft, barring any unforeseen explosion of performance by either Rui Hachimura or Troy Brown.
