Who are the players from the 2020 NBA Draft most likely to be successful?

We are about a week away from the NBA Draft, November 18th, and teams have a lot of work on their hands.

This is the first draft since 1975 to not be held in June. The draft was originally scheduled to take place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the draft will be conducted virtually from ESPN’s facilities in Bristol, Connecticut.

There are several exciting names in this draft class. One thing that is so unique about this class is the mix of athletes who played at the collegiate level and overseas professionally.

It’s important to consider all of these young players no matter where they played previously because they bring a lot of talent that can make or break a franchises’ future.

In recent years, we have had some of the NBA’s biggest stars produced overseas which include, Luka Doncic, Giannis Antetkounmpo, and Kristaps Porzingis.

Throughout NBA history, some of the highest-drafted prospects haven’t always lived up to the hype they received before the draft. For example, Anthony Bennett, the first overall pick in the 2013 NBA draft by the Cleveland Cavaliers, played for four seasons in the NBA and is considered one of the biggest busts of all-time.

With the 2020 NBA Draft just around the corner, here are ten NBA prospects most likely to succeed.
