Keshad Johnson appears in most mock drafts in the second round; Jaedon LeDee does not
SDSU’s Jaedon LeDee guards UConn center Donovan Clingan in the NCAA Tournament’s Sweet 16 last March in BostonSan Diego State and Connecticut met in the NCAA men’s basketball championship two Aprils ago before 72,423 at Houston’s NRG Stadium. Four players from that game would appear in NBA games last season.We’ll find out where this week, when the NBA moves to a two-day format for its two-round draft. The 30-pick first round is Wednesday at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, starting at 5 p.m.
It is considered one of the weaker drafts in recent memory, which makes the back half all that more unpredictable and intriguing — and just because of whether Bronny James could get picked. He’s projected to go No. 39 to Memphis by Bleacher Report, 43 to Miami by Yahoo, 50 to Indiana by The Ringer, 51 to the Washington Wizards by ESPN, 52 to Golden State by NBC Sports and The Sporting News. The Athletic and NBADraft.net have him going undrafted.
“Being able to guard multiple positions, not really having one position to my name offensively or defensively, that allows me to fit right in on the evolution of what basketball is coming to today.”
