2024 NBA Mock Draft 1.0: Wizards shock at pick No. 2, Bulls trade into top 6
By Jack Simone
23. Isaiah Collier, USC | Milwaukee Bucks
Bringing in Isaiah Collier would give the Milwaukee Bucks another guy who can attack, handle the ball, and defend. Him and Andre Jackson would combine to form quite the explosive young duo.
24. TRADE | Bulls trade Alex Caruso, Torrey Craig, Second-round pick to Knicks for Bojan Bogdanovic, No. 24, No. 25, Future first-round pick
Bulls select Kyshawn George, Miami
This is the draft of the Chicago Bulls. They’ve been too stagnant for too long, and it’s time for them to turn it around.
They’d trade in to grab a couple of prospects, starting with Kyshawn George. The Miami product is a big wing at 6-foot-7, can shoot the ball well, and projects to be a solid creator at the NBA level.
Meanwhile, the New York Knicks would trade out of the first round, instead choosing to snag another player Tom Thibodeau can trust in Alex Caruso.
25. Kel’el Ware, Indiana | Chicago Bulls (via trade with Knicks)
Can Donovan Clingan and Kel’el Ware play together? It probably wouldn’t look amazing. But the Bulls need talent, and Ware has a ton of upside on both ends of the court. If he progresses well, this could be a steal.
26. Zach Edey, Purdue | Washington Wizards
Who knows what Zach Edey will look like at the NBA level? The Washington Wizards can afford to find out. They don’t have any certainty at the center spot, and if even a small part of Edey’s college success translates, it would be a win for Washington.
