There was a chance that Ament, a 6’10 forward who had a ton of great scoring games in the SEC, would be taken in the top-10. The fact that Milwaukee was able to get him at 13 is huge, as he has one of the highest ceilings in the draft outside of the top-4. It’s a great start to the Bucks' rebuild.
Grade: A+Â
14. Charlotte Hornets - Hannes Steinbach
- 2025-26 stats (Washington): 18.5 ppg and 11.8 rpg
The 6’11 big man is one of the best interior scoring and rebounding bigs in the draft. Charlotte has plenty of perimeter scoring, so he should be able to balance out the offense. But can he play and defend at the five-spot? That’s a question to watch.
Grade: B
15. Chicago Bulls (via Portland) - Dailyn Swain
- 2025-26 stats (Texas): 17.3 ppg, 7.5 rpg, and 3.6 apg
Swain is a good wing who can do a little of everything. But the Bulls already have Matas Buzelis and drafted Caleb Wilson in the frontcourt. Depth on the wings helps but the shooting concerns remain on the roster for Chicago, making life harder for point guard Josh Giddey.
Grade: C-
