An updated look at where Kentucky players stand in latest NBA Mock Drafts

The 2024 NBA Draft (which will take place over the course of two days for the first time ever) is just a little over a month away. On June 26 and 27 in Brooklyn, the Atlanta Hawks will kick off the draft with the first overall pick.

Now that the NBA Draft Lottery and NBA Combine are behind us, fresh mock draft updates are popping up more and more. As has been the case for several months now, Kentucky freshmen guards Reed Sheppard and Rob Dillingham continue to trend as Top 10 projected draft picks.

But what about Justin Edwards and Antonio Reeves, who both had impressive performances during last week’s Combine in Chicago? There’s also the situation with BYU’s Jaxson Robinson, who is believed to be a Kentucky lean if he ultimately pulls his name out of the draft pool. The deadline to do so is a week from today, May 29.

Since our last mock roundup on May 12, ESPN, Bleacher Report, CBS Sports, and FOX Sports have all provided new takes on the possible draft order. Check them out below.

ESPN (May 22)

• No. 3 | Reed Sheppard –> Houston Rockets (via BKN)
• No. 4 | Rob Dillingham –> San Antonio Spurs
• No. 29 | Justin Edwards –> Utah Jazz (via OKC)

Of note, BYU’s Jaxson Robinson was previously a projected late-second round pick by ESPN less than two weeks ago. ESPN no longer expects him to hear his name called.

Bleacher Report (May 21)

• No. 6 | Reed Sheppard –> Charlotte Hornets
• No. 9 | Rob Dillingham –> Memphis Grizzlies
• No. 46 | Justin Edwards –> Los Angeles Clippers (via IND)
• No. 49 | Jaxson Robinson –> Indiana Pacers (via CLE)
• No. 53 | Antonio Reeves –> Detroit Pistons (NYK)
