2023 NBA Draft: Team Pick Grades
On Thursday night, 58 players were selected across the league as NBA careers are set to begin. From there, an influx of undrafted free agent deals were agreed to, as NBA Summer League is less than two weeks away.
It was an exciting night, as trades happened all throughout as teams moved up, down, in and out of the draft. Every teams' strategy was slightly different, as some teams looked for win-now talent and others took high upside swings on risky more prospects.
Until these prospects take the floor in an NBA setting, it's difficult to gauge who will be worth their draft position. Regardless, we've handed out draft grades for each team. These grades were made based on value relative to position, fit and need. Over the coming weeks, the Draft Digest team will have more in-depth breakdowns of each incoming NBA rookie.
