31. Nets (via NYK.)- Eric Paschall, F, Villanova
Stock Trend from Pre-Tournament Mock: +1
Able to address another positional need, the Nets take Paschall out of Villanova to build up at the power forward position. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson is a solid defensive player, and Paschall’s offensive abilities will help offset what he lacks on offense. With three virtually first round selections for the Nets, the team is able to fill multiple needs.
32. Suns- Jalen McDaniels, F, San Diego State
Stock Trend from Pre-Tournament Mock: +2
In this mock, the Suns yet again miss out on Williamson and take a point guard with their first pick. With Dragan Bender as the only true power forward on the roster, the team will look to remedy the issue in the second round. Putting up nice numbers at San Diego State, McDaniels is a solid pickup for the perpetually rebuilding Suns who hope they can finally nail back-to-back drafts.
