Follow the live pick tracker below to get updated picks and instant grades as teams makes their selections today!

1. Washington Wizards - AJ Dybantsa, F, BYU

Grade: B+

Dybantsa has Tracy McGrady upside as a scorer. I'm a bit concerned about his defense, but the duo of him and Trae Young will be incredibly fun to watch. It isn't normal for players of his age to average 25+ points per game in college and he's a very underrated passer as well.

2. Utah Jazz - Darryn Peterson, G, Kansas

Grade: B+

Peterson vs Boozer has become a fascinating debate and I can understand the debate in both directions. Ultimately, Boozer is the No. 1 player in the class for me. That being said, Peterson still has special touch from the midrange and averaged 20.2 points per game as a freshman. The cramping issues are going to be concerning, but I think the fit with Keyonte George is tremendous. The Jazz are going to be a fascinating team to watch next season.

3. Memphis Grizzlies - Cameron Boozer, F/C, Duke

Grade: A+

In my mind, Memphis got the best player in the draft with the No. 3 overall selection. The defensive versatility is going to be a question, but there's almost no other hole in his game that can really be poked. He's a elite passer, rebounder and scorer while also being the most productive player in the country as a true freshman. At just 18 years old, he's an amazing replacement for JJJ. I also like how Boozer will pair with Cam Spencer, Zach Edey and Cedric Coward.

4. Chicago Bulls - Caleb Wilson, F, North Carolina

Grade: A

The Bulls have been trying to find a new identity for what feels like an eternity and they got it with Caleb Wilson. Wilson is devastatingly athletic, has tons of defensive tools and has room for more upside as a shooter. He's got an elite projected free throw rate of 61.6% and Wilson shot an impressive 57.8% from the field. They selected the best player on the board and he slots in perfectly next to Matas Buzelis. They are going to lean strongly into a transition-based offense with tons of length next season.

5. Los Angeles Clippers - Keaton Wagler, G, Illinois

Grade: A-

Wagler has the potential to be the best playmaker in the class and his development is truly unprecedented. It'll be interesting to see how the Clippers build a team around Wagler and Darius Garland due to their defensive limitations. Still, this is a great pick for the Clippers and they now have something to build on after the Kawhi Leonard era ends.

6. Brooklyn Nets - Mikel Brown Jr, G, Louisville

Grade: B

I think Mikel Brown can really shoot it and the Nets definitely need to add players with sky-high ceilings. The problem is that they added a ton of ball-handlers in last year's draft, the shot selection can get him into trouble at times and the back injuries are extremely worrying. He can shoot, dribble and pass at a solid to excellent level. If he can stay healthy, he'll likely have a long career in the NBA at bare minimum.

7. Sacramento Kings - Darius Acuff, G, Arkansas

Grade: C+

Acuff is a tremendous offensive player, but I don't see him ever becoming a solid defensive player at the next level due to the effort and lack of physical tools on that end. He will definitely juice the Kings' offense and I think he's probably the surest bet to be a No. 1 option of the guard class beyond Darryn Peterson, but I would have gone with Kingston Flemings here.

8. Atlanta Hawks - Kingston Flemings, G, Houston Cougars

Grade: B+

I have questions about the size and rim finishing, but the defensive chops and speed coupled with the ability as a passer is awesome. Flemings is also a terrific fit off the court and I am excited to see how he functions as a playmaker next to Jalen Johnson. The Hawks could have gotten De'Aaron Fox with better defense and despite his recent performance in the Finals, that's still a great player.

9. Dallas Mavericks - Morez Johnson Jr, F/C, Michigan

Grade: C+

The first shocker of the draft comes here at No. 9. I think the motor, defense and rebounding are excellent with Johnson. He's also got an elite FG% of 62.3% from the field and perhaps he develops further as a shooter. However, I still would have gone with Brayden Burries at this spot.

10. Milwaukee Bucks - Brayden Burries, G, Arizona

Grade: A-

I love this selection for the Bucks. Burries showed he was one of the more complete players in the draft and does everything at a solid level. He may not have the sky-high upside of other prospects, but I think the duo of him and Ryan Rollins will be surprisingly fun to watch. Players who can defend extremely well on the perimeter, shoot at an above-average level and get to his spots at all three levels usually find a way to stick around.

11. Golden State Warriors - Yaxel Lendeborg, PF/C, Michigan

Grade: A

Lendeborg is one of the most pro-ready players in this class and he goes to a team that has massive needs in the frontcourt. He's extremely strong and physical. If they get Kristaps Porzingis back, the Warriors will be able to put a lot of size out around Steph Curry for one last run.

12. Oklahoma City Thunder - Aday Mara, C, Michigan

Grade: B

Mara is absolutely massive at 7'3 and he's a surprisingly good passer for such a big center. He's got some touch around the rim, showed growth as a rim protector and anchored a great defense. His conditioning is going to take time, but the Thunder now have options if they decide to move on from Isaiah Hartenstein.

13. Milwaukee Bucks - Nate Ament, F, Tennesee

Grade: C-

I think Ament towards the end of the lottery is much better than No. 10, but it's still not one of my favorite picks. That being said, he's got some legit free-throw drawing skills and there's a good chance that he could become a good 3&D wing with time. He's only 20 years old and wings usually don't show what they are until they're 23-24. He'll have plenty of time to develop and he can capitalize on the open shots he does get.

14. Charlotte Hornets - Hannes Steinbach, F, Washington

Grade: A-

One of the best rebounding teams in the NBA just got even stronger in that area by adding Steinbach. The defense is still a question mark,b but he averaged a double-double, blocks shots and has some chops as a shooter. Hitting 75.9% of his attempts from the charity stripe suggests he might have a future as a floor spacer with time.

15. Chicago Bulls - Dailyn Swain, G/F, Texas

Grade: B+

Swain is a really interesting player who is going to be an amazing 3&D player if his jumper improves. He's got a 6'10 wingspan, shot an impressive 54.2% from the field and has star upside with a excellent projected FTA rate of 0.506 and FT% of 81.5%. The Bulls added another great athlete to a team already chock-full of them.

16. Memphis Grizzlies - Bennett Stirtz (traded to Oklahoma City Thunder)

Grade: B-

Stirtz is a great passer and the Thunder love to add players who can dribble, pass and shoot. I like his potential at the next level - I just wonder how they make minutes for all these players. Regardless, he's a high-feel player and he should be able to make an instant impact in the rotation for OKC.

17. Oklahoma City Thunder (traded to Memphis Grizzlies, traded to Detroit Pistons) - Ebuka Okorie, G, Stanford

Grade: A-

The Pistons needed another guard who can drive to the rim and shoot the ball to relieve some pressure from Cade Cunningham. Okorie fits that to a T and he's a very underrated passer as well. He shot 35.4% from deep on volume and 83.2% from the charity stripe. He'll be a fun player to roll out in the playoffs and they have a great guard trio of Cunningham, Dannis Jenkins and Okorie.

18. Charlotte Hornets - Christian Anderson, G, Texas Tech

Grade: C+

Anderson has a legitimate argument to be the best shooter in the class. He shot 41.5% from deep on almost eight attempts a game. It'll be even more offensive firepower for Charlotte and that doesn't necessarily hurt. He's also a great passer and the fit as a possible LaMelo Ball backup makes sense. I just would have taken someone who won't automatically be a target on defense.

19. Toronto Raptors - Allen Graves, F, Santa Clara

Grade: B

I thought this pick might end up being a guard, but Graves has talent. He averaged 11.8 PPG and 6.5 RPG coming off the bench for Santa Clara, shooting 41.6% from three on nearly three attempts per game. Will be an interesting fit in an already crowded frontcourt for Toronto.

20. San Antonio Spurs - Jayden Quaintance, C, Kentucky

Grade: B+

Look, the injuries are what they are and there is a reason that Quaintance fell this far. However, if the injuries check out and he is able to get back to full strength, then the Spurs may have gotten the best defensive player in the entire draft.

Quaintance has elite defensive upside and while there is a lot of work to do on offense and of course injury concerns, getting this kind of upside at No. 20 for a team that is loaded with talent is a solid pickup.

21. Detroit Pistons (traded to the Memphis Grizzlies) - Karim Lopez, F, New Zealand Breakers

Grade: C+

After draft Cameron Boozer at No. 3, it made sense for the Grizzlies to try and find a player to go in the backcourt and with Labaron Philon Jr on the board, that seemed to make the most sense.

Instead, the Grizzlies opted to go with Karim Lopez, someone who I think is going to struggle on defense and might not be a perfect fit with this current roster.

22. Philadelphia 76ers - Labaron Philon Jr, G, Alabama

Grade: A

This is a steal for the 76ers, who did not have a big need at guard with Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe, but he was pretty clearly the best player available. Philon could carve out a role quickly off the bench for Philadelphia and he is a lottery type of talent.

23. Atlanta Hawks - Zuby Ejiofor, F/C, Saint John's

Grade: B-

This is an interesting pick for the Hawks. It was assumed that they would go with a big at some point in this draft, but Ejiofor is an interesting pick.

Ejiofor plays really hard and with a high motor, is a very good defender, but lacks size and is not able to shoot from the perimeter. He was the top player on the Hawks board though and there might be some belief that he is going to be able to shoot in the future. An interesting pick for Atlanta.

24. New York Knicks (traded to the Los Angeles Lakers) -

Grade: A

25. Los Angeles Lakers (traded to the New York Knicks) - Sergio De Larrea, G, Spain

Grade: B-

26. Denver Nuggets (traded to San Antonio) - Tarris Reed Jr, C, UConn

Grade: A-

27. Boston Celtics - Chris Cenac Jr, C, Houston

Grade: A-

28. Brooklyn Nets - Joshua Jefferson, F, Iowa State

Grade: A-

29. Cleveland Cavaliers -

Grade:

30. Dallas Mavericks -
