Mock NBA draft 5.0: The LaMelo Ball resurgence is here

Just like that, a week later and the market has flipped on LaMelo Ball. What does the change in the rumor mill do to the rest of the mock NBA draft?

Somehow in a year when there has been the least to base the draft selections off of the changes from week to week are impossible to keep up with. Without pre-NBA draft workouts and interviews for the most part things change so quickly without much explanation.

LaMelo Ball sliding last time caused ripples in the NBA draft process. The long-presumed top-three pick has reportedly interviewed poorly and caused teams to be turned off. He is polarizing and where he stands with the league intelligentsia seems to change as frequently as the wind. This week, reported by many, scouts expect Ball to go number one overall.

He has the highest projected ceiling and exudes star power. The talent is undeniable and many teams who are currently outside of the top 10 realize they have chance to jump on a guy with superstar potential. He is a tradeable asset for a team looking to win now.

So what happens with the rest of the draft? During the pre-draft process Anthony Edwards has been the consistent top selection due to fit, especially because this mock has not projected any trades. Where does he fall and consequently anyone else who would tumble along with him. Without projecting them, but still reading into the rumors, things are changing throughout the top 10 and even beyond. Without further ado, it is time to get to the new number one.
