NBA Mock Draft: Picks 4-10

The Charlotte Hornets, Portland Trail Blazers, Memphis Grizzlies, Houston Rockets, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Atlanta Hawks are all currently projected to have top 10 picks in the 2024 NBA Draft.

With little consensus when it comes to this year's draft class, players that might be a top-3 pick for one team might fall into the second half of the lottery. Cody Williams and Ron Holland are both higher on some draft boards, with some even having Williams at number one.

Williams is the younger sibling of Jaylen Williams of the Thunder but is projected to go fourth to the Hornets. He is a big wing who can both attack the basket on offense and guard a variety of positions. Holland was initially seen as one of the top players in this draft class but has slid to sixth even despite averaging nearly 20 points and 7 rebounds in the NBA G-League as a teenager.

Although his numbers are impressive, he hasn't been efficient, leading to questions about how he will be in the NBA. Considering that Memphis didn't expect to have a top-10 pick, they would probably be willing to take him and hope that he lives up to his potential.

Another intriguing prospect is Kyle Filipowski, who, at 7'0, is one of the biggest players in the draft and is also the most offensively skilled big man in the draft. He can score in the post and out on the perimeter but there are concerns about his ability to defend in the NBA.

All in all, while this draft isn't nearly as highly regarded as last year's, there are still some intriguing prospects to be had. With March Madness around the corner, other players are likely to make a name for themselves and move up in mock drafts.
