We’re officially one week away from the 2020 NBA Draft, which will be held on Wednesday, Nov. 18, through the ESPN headquarters.
The general consensus seems to be that 5 SEC players will go in Round 1, and that’s how many SEC stars CBS Sports analyst Gary Parrish included in his updated first-round mock draft.
As you can see below, he has Georgia star Anthony Edwards falling to No. 3 overall, but the rest of the SEC guys in the top 20:
- No. 3 — Anthony Edwards, G, Georgia — Charlotte Hornets
- No. 7 — Isaac Okoro, F, Auburn — Detroit Pistons
- No. 12 — Aaron Nesmith, F, Vanderbilt — Sacramento Kings
- No. 13 — Kira Lewis Jr., G, Alabama — New Orleans Pelicans
- No. 18 — Tyrese Maxey, G, Kentucky — Dallas Mavericks
Will this be how things shake out next Wednesday? We’ll find out soon enough!
