14 of 14

57. Atlanta Hawks (via Boston) - Mailq Brown

  • 2025-26 stats (Duke): 4.9 ppg and 5.2 rpg

Brown was never a scorer during his college days at Syracuse and Duke, but he was one of the top interior defenders, earning ACC Defensive Player of the Year honors. For a Hawks franchise that lacks much size, having Brown offer even some minutes off the bench should improve Atlanta’s defense.

58. New Orleans Pelicans (via Detroit) - Milos Uzan

  • 2025-26 stats (Houston): 11.1 ppg and 4.0 apg

Even with Dejounte Murray set to be back for all of next year, New Orleans needs more ball-handlers going forward. Uzan has 133 career starts and shot 36% from deep in four years, improving his defense during his stay at Houston. He’s a capable ball-handler who can play on and off the ball, which helps his pro prospects. 

59. Minnesota Timberwolves (via San Antonio) -  Jaden Bradley

  • 2025-26 stats (Arizona): 13.3 ppg and 4.4 apg

On a team with multiple first-round NBA Draft picks, Bradley was Arizona and the Big 12’s best player, earning Conference Player of the Year honors. He’s a quality defender and proven shot-maker, giving Minnesota another ball-handler to potentially work with late in the draft.

60. Washington Wizards (via OKC) - Ja’Kobi Gillespie

  • 2025-26 stats (Tennessee): 18.4 ppg and 5.4 apg

At three different stops, Gillespie has shown he can be a lead guard. The news that Trae Young is entering free agency doesn’t mean that he’s gone, but Washington may make sure they add a ball-handler just in case he does depart. At the end of the draft, the veteran playmaker can make an impact for the Wizards.
