With the NBA Draft just a few hours away, here are the final player rankings by position. If I had the #1 pick I'd likely take Duke's Marvin Bagley III for most NBA teams, but arguments can definitely be made for DeAndre Ayton or one of the top point guards depending on team need. I think it's a very close call between Luka Doncic, Trae Young, Collin Sexton, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander at the point guard position, as they all have very different games and strengths. I'd need an insider look to truly decide between them, but I'd lean toward Trae Young simply because of his Steph Curry-like offensive ability. Obviously I've seen much less of Doncic than the other three, so again a closer look would give me a lot more information to go on. I included Doncic in the list since he's likely to be taken in the top five, but he's the only player who didn't play college basketball that I added into the rankings.
