2023 NBA Draft Big Board Update: Top 50 Prospects

The draft is just over a week away. And while the top three prospects have remained in place since SI’s last Big Board update, there’s been plenty of movement below them.

The pool for the 2023 NBA draft is officially set, as the league’s withdrawal deadline came and went Monday. Between potential draft-and-stash international prospects and college players hoping to boost their stock with another year in school, the outlook for this draft, particularly outside the lottery, has shifted a great deal since SI’s most recent Big Board update. 

So while French sensation Victor Wembanyama remains at the top, here’s a look at an updated outlook on this year’s draft.
