2024 NBA Mock Draft: Projections Following NBA Trade Deadline

Predicting the 2024 NBA Draft results with just over four months until the event.

The 2023-24 NBA campaign is well underway, as the trade deadline has officially passed and NBA All-Star Weekend is in roughly a week. Although the 2024 NBA Draft is still months away, it's never too early to start looking ahead.

There's a deep class of incoming prospects set to make the jump to the NBA next summer, even if there isn't a generational talent featured at the top. Even without a clear top selection at this point in the 2024 NBA Draft, that doesn't mean franchise-altering talent can't be found.

Leveraging Tankathon to generate our draft order, we take a look at fit and projections for next summer's event in this iteration of Draft Digest's 2024 NBA Mock Draft.
