The NCAA basketball is over following the conclusion of March Madness, turning all the attention on the NBA Draft. Here’s where the top 60 currently stand.

With the conclusion of both the NCAA basketball and NBA regular season, much of the sport’s focus has already turned to the upcoming NBA Draft.

The draft order isn’t totally set – there are still positional tiebreakers that need to be done, the lottery has to happen, and the results of the NBA Playoffs may shake things up a bit – but now we know the general space almost every team will be selecting.

This class is being billed as a three-man class with Zion Williamson, R.J. Barrett, and Ja Morant all looking like potential stars (though Barrett has more doubters than the rest). Williamson and Morant have the kind of athleticism that will translate to the NBA right away while Barrett led all freshmen in scoring.

But, as we saw in the NCAA Tournament, there could be some gems outside of that group.

Wings Jarrett Culver and De’Andre Hunter led their respective schools to the national championship game and showed why they will be top 10 picks in the process. Talented but raw players like Kevin Porter Jr. and Nassir Little may provide value for a team in the middle of the first round, and NCAA Tournament star Carsen Edwards should make some team very happy.

Where will all of these players end up and who could your team rely on to play a significant role next year? Find out our current projections in our latest mock 2019 NBA Draft:
