2026 NBA Draft Guide
How do the prospects in the 2026 NBA Draft stack up among one another? Where do the possible outcomes of these prospects lie?
It is here. My third annual NBA Draft Guide is here for the 2026 draft class. It’s been so cool to have the draft guide be a part of my basketball journey. Diving deeper into draft scouting has been so satisfying these past few years. This project has evolved so much, and I’m ready to see what more I can do with this draft guide. What a class to evaluate, too!
Also a SENSATIONAL cover photo from my talented wife 😁
Here’s what my draft guide includes:
My top-75 big board
How my draft board stacks among the consensus
60 single-page scouting reports
Elevator pitches on the prospects 61-75
4 quadrant takes about this class
