The 2018 NBA Draft is just a blink of an eye away. Here’s a look at Part 1 of our final top 60 prospect rankings on the last big board update.

Before I get into the rankings, I would just like to start out by listing a few things. First, this big board will be broken up into seven tiers. These seven tiers represent my confidence rating on each prospect’s likelihood of reaching his floor, ceiling or median outcome.

Second, I will briefly describing each prospect’s game in their respective tier, along with finishing at the end with some guys that I feel I am higher or lower on as prospects, along with the guys I feel have a chance to develop into NBA players eventually but may not be NBA-ready yet.

Third, I would just like to explain what I value in the modern NBA out of each position. Obviously certain players will fit into different archetypes and will need certain team fits to be successful as NBA players, but we will dive into that later on.

Lastly, these entire player rankings are not a projected draft range of where each player will go. Some players I may have ranked higher, lower, or right on the money of their perceived draft position. Without further ado, let’s dive into tiers 1-3 of our final 2018 NBA Draft big board.
