The 2024 NBA Draft is still a few months away, but some young players have already stood out and are expected to grab some of the top spots in the draft. James Lebron’ His son, Bronny James, is also expected to declare for the 2024 NBA draft, but at this time he is not considered a top-10 pick.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at the players expected to be in the Top 3 of the 2024 NBA Draft:
NBA Mock Draft 2024: Bronny James’ top 3 prospects and rankings
•
#1 – Subject Nikola
The Serbian guard is off to a good start in the Adriatic League with averages of 18.9 ppg, 6.8 ppg and 3.2 ppg.
Topic is a versatile point guard who can score in many different ways, with his speed and ability to run around the court being his main advantages. At 6′ 6″, he is considered one of the best prospects, and some media even place him at No. 1.
#2 – Ron Holland
He is an excellent defender and his physique allows him to score in the paint. Play for G League Ignite, he averaged 25.8 ppg and 7.4 rpg in games played between early and mid-December. However, he needs to work on his shooting, especially from beyond the arc (25.7 percent so far), to further elevate his game.
Likewise, his defensive ability and excellent footwork have allowed him to maintain a spot in the top 5 in mock drafts.
#3 – Alex Sarr
Alex Sarr is also a top prospect, thanks to his defense. He has the ability to guard both big man positions, while also being excellent at changeup defense, thanks to his quick feet.
Sarr is able to put the ball on the floor and drive to the basket, but, like Holland, he needs to work on his shooting, especially from beyond the arc and the free throw line.
A mediocre shooting percentage will certainly limit his potential, but he can become a force in the paint and that could be enough to land him in the Top-3 of the 2024 NBA Draft.
As for Bronny James, he made his NCAA debut a few days ago and yet not much can be said about his ability to play well in the NBA. As he advances and plays more matches, he should climb higher in the rankings.
Bronny James has been great playing on the ball and can make a difference as a spot-up shooter. He has potential, but it will take time for him to find his rhythm after suffering a cardiac arrest last summer, which led to a five-month recovery.
Right now, SBNation has him at No. 19, a pick that belongs to his father’s old team, the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Lottery Pick Predictions
The 2024 NBA Draft will take place on June 27, 2024 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
