In my mind it's a three-horse race for the #1 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. Trae Young, Marvin Bagley III, and Deandre Ayton would all garner consideration if it were up to me, and the makeup of the team I was choosing for would dictate who I selected. I've heard a lot of talk about a European player named Luka Doncic being the first pick overall, and while I haven't really seen him play, I'm pretty sure I'd be very unlikely to take him over those three. Here are my overall rankings heading into the last month of the season.
