NBA Mock Database: Kylie Irving leads for top spot

DISCUSS IT IN OUR DRAFT FORUM

The NBA Mock Draft Database is heating up with 64 total mocks drafts listed and 22 updated in the month of May.  We are now updating the NBA Database a few times per week.  Our NBA Mock Draft Database is modeled after our NFL Mock Draft Database, the original mock draft database to appear on the web 12 years ago.  The NBA Mock Database is now in its 7th season.

We expanded the Database this season to include the Top 7 picks.  We may add another pick or two as the NBA Draft approaches.  For now, we munched all mock drafts updated between APRIL 30TH AND MAY 11TH.  That is a total of 23 NBA mock drafts.  This will become a regular addition to DC Pro Sports Report since the NFL Mock Munch was such a popular article.  Here are your top 7 Leaders:

PICK	PLAYER	% OF MOCKS
1st Pick	Kyle Irving	70%
2nd Pick	Derrick Willaims	70%
3rd Pick	Enes Kanter	70%
4th Pick	Jonas Valanciunas	22%
5th Pick	Kemba Walker	39%
6th Pick	Brandon Knight	30%
7th Pick	Bismack Biyombo	22%

As you can see, the mocks are pretty clear, even before the Lottery, that Kyle Irving, Derrick Williams, and Enes Kanter are going 1, 2, and 3.  After that, it drops off dramatically.  Given a possible NBA lockout, several big time players like Harrison Barnes, Jared Sullinger, Terrence Jones, and Perry Jones all decided to return to college for an additional season.  Could be smart if there is a lockout.  That is precisely why you see so much indecision after the top 3 spots.
