2025 NBA mock draft: Johni Broome, Ryan Kalkbrenner go early in second-round projection
Written by CBS SPORTS ALL RIGHTS RESERVED on June 26, 2025
With one round down and one to go, we take one final stab at a mock draft with projections for the final 29 picks on Thursday
Thirty players were selected Wednesday in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft and 29 more will come off the board Thursday to wrap up Round 2. And boy oh boy: if the second and final day of picks is anything resembling the first, then we should be in for a fun and unpredictable finish to the annual draft in Brooklyn.
Wednesday saw a number of surprises throughout the night — Ace Bailey came off the board to Utah at No. 5, and Yang Hansen, a projected second-rounder, went at No. 16 to Portland — and yet there are plenty of potential fireworks still looming entering Thursday.
Only three players who were ranked inside the top 30 of the CBS Sports Big Board still remain undrafted, and all three — Rasheer Fleming, Maxime Raynaud and Ryan Kalkbrenner — are likely off the board quickly when the second round picks back up at 8 p.m. ET.
