Brooklyn Nets NBA Draft Notebook: Latest Mock Draft Projections
Brooklyn to have the No. 15, No. 16, No. 23, No. 25, No. 41 and No. 44 picks in the 2025 NBA Draft.. In B/R’s mock, the Nets selected Noa Essengue, Thomas Sorber, Labaron Philon, Noah Penda, Jamir Watkins and JT Toppin.currently has Jase Richardson at No. 15, Essengue at No. 16 or Alex Karaban at No. 18, Cedric Coward at No. 23, Adou Thiero at No. 25 or KJ Lewis at No. 27, Hunter Sallis at No. 41 and RJ Luis Jr. at No. 43 or Derrion Reid at No. 44.
Philon has established himself as Alabama’s best prospect. The freshman point guard was a four-star recruit in high school, but he has a lot of things NBA teams look for in ballhandlers. Philon is speedy, capable out of ball screens, pesky on defense and shows tremendous year-to-year improvement. In the NBA, he projects as a guard who’ll fit in both on- and off-ball.
Toppin is in his second year of college basketball after impressing as a freshman at New Mexico. He’s now at Texas Tech, where his production finishing and blocking shots at the basket, as well as making some reads on the short roll, remains. Toppin is a valuable college player, but the concern with him going forward is that he’s too small to be a center in the NBA and not versatile enough to slide down a position.
Coward “does a little bit of everything at 6-6 with a 7-foot wingspan,” Vecenie wrote. The Washington State prospect is averaging 17.7 points, seven rebounds, 3.7 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.7 blocks in his third college season.so far. The Arkansas junior operates with functional strength and physical dimensions, dislodging defenders, disrupting attackers, and coming up with two-way plays. He still needs to shoot better from three better, though.
