2023 Aggregate NBA Mock Draft 2.0: Top prospects after Victor Wembanyama, Scoot Henderson?
The 2023 NBA Draft is headlined by center Victor Wembanyama and guard Scoot Henderson, but who are the top prospects on the board following that dynamic duo?
To get a better projection of where all of the top prospects currently stand, we compiled 10 mock drafts from ESPN, The Athletic, Bleacher Report, NBADraft.net, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, SB Nation, Yahoo, Basketball News, and USA TODAY’s For The Win.
HoopsHype then gathered thoughts from several NBA executives and scouts for their insight on the projected first-round picks for the second edition of the aggregate mock draft to find the answer.
NOTE: These rankings reflect the composite score to get a feel for the overall consensus, not our own opinion. For example, if a player was the first pick on a publication’s mock draft, he received 60 points. If a player was second, he received 59 points, and so on. We then tabulated the total number of points for each player’s consensus ranking.
HoopsHype’s Alberto de Roa contributed research to this report.
1. Victor Wembanyama

(Boulogne-Levallois: Big, International, 7-2)
Previous rank: 1 (-)
Best rank: 1 (ESPN, The Athletic, Bleacher Report, NBADraft.net, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, SB Nation, Yahoo, Basketball News, For The Win)
Worst rank: 1
Victor Wembanyama was the unanimous No. 1 overall pick in all 10 mock drafts polled. Entering 2023, Wembanyama is considered a generational prospect that has surpassed the hype of LeBron James coming out of high school.
Wembanyama can create off the dribble, shoot one-legged three-pointers, and act as a human fly swatter around the rim or on the perimeter when switched onto guards.
The only question some around the league have is whether Wembanyama will be able to remain healthy due to his unique size and skill set, given injuries to fellow unicorn types such as Chet Holmgren, Kristaps Porzingis, etc.
As one NBA scout told HoopsHype, “Some people compared his physique with Chet Holmgren, but Victor’s shoulders and frame are better. You don’t pass on him No. 1 because you’re worried about an injury at his size.”
Another NBA scout suggested Wembanyama try to emulate the body growth of Giannis Antetokounmpo to maintain as much flexibility and athleticism as possible while maximizing the filling out of his frame.
Wembanyama may also be the first prospect to have current NBA players compared to him, such as Orlando Magic center Bol Bol.
“Everyone talks about the Victor dude from France,” Magic star Paolo Banchero told HoopsHype when asked who compares to Bol. “I’m not trying to compare them, but Bol’s 7-foot-2, shoots threes, brings it up the court, makes passes, and blocks shots. I feel like people kind of forget about him, but Bol’s a freak of nature.”
2. Scoot Henderson

(Ignite: Guard, G League, 6-2)
Previous rank: 2 (-)
Best rank: 2 (ESPN, The Athletic, Bleacher Report, NBADraft.net, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, SB Nation, Yahoo, Basketball News, For The Win)
Worst rank: 2
Scoot Henderson has drawn comparisons to Donovan Mitchell, Derrick Rose, Russell Westbrook, and John Wall, according to several NBA executives and scouts who spoke with HoopsHype.
Henderson was the unanimous No. 2 overall pick in all 10 mock drafts polled. In any other draft class without a generational talent like Wembanyama, Henderson would be the top prospect.
At the G League Showcase in Las Vegas, those around the G League Ignite program raved about Henderson’s basketball IQ, internal drive, charisma, and leadership qualities. Despite being out due to injury, Henderson was the most vocal player on Ignite’s bench, cheering his teammates on and barking out instructions on both sides of the ball from the sideline.
3. Amen Thompson
Dale Zanine-USA TODAY Sports
(Elite: Wing, Overtime, 6-6)
Previous rank: 6 (+3)
Best rank: 3 (ESPN, The Athletic, Bleacher Report, SB Nation, Basketball News, For The Win)
Worst rank: 8
Amen Thompson was the third overall pick in six of the 10 mock drafts polled.
The third spot in the draft has been a rotation predominantly with the Thompson twins (Amen and Ausar) and Nick Smith of Arkansas thus far. Alabama’s Brandon Miller is another name who’s entered the conversation for the third pick thanks to a blistering start to the collegiate season.
“Amen Thompson is going Top 5 for sure,” according to one NBA scout who spoke with HoopsHype. “Amen is more of a point guard than his brother, Ausar, with elite athleticism, but he needs to work on his jump shot at this point in his development.”
4. Nick Smith
Nelson Chenault-USA TODAY Sports
(Arkansas: Guard, Freshman, 6-5)
Previous rank: 3 (-1)
Best rank: 3 (Sports Illustrated, NBADraft.net)
Worst rank: 7
Arkansas guard Nick Smith Jr. showed why NBA talent evaluators rated him so highly in the draft by averaging 19.7 points on 45.5 percent shooting and 3.0 assists per game during a three-game stretch from Dec. 3-10.
During that span, Smith Jr. showed an ability to create for himself and get into the lane and finish around the rim, knock down several catch-and-shoot threes beyond the arc, and find his frontcourt teammates for various alley-oops.
However, he’ll be out indefinitely due to right knee management, the school announced.
5. Ausar Thompson
Dale Zanine-USA TODAY Sports
(Elite: Wing, Overtime, 6-6)
Previous rank: 4 (-1)
Best rank: 3 (CBS Sports)
Worst rank: 11
After ranking ahead of his brother, Amen, in the first installment of the aggregate mock draft, Ausar Thompson has fallen behind towards the end of 2022.
Despite taking a minor step back in this aggregate mock draft, Ausar has given some talent evaluators around the league optimism over his improved shooting from beyond the arc, which is up to 33.3 percent on 3.7 attempts per game.
6. Brandon Miller
Marvin Gentry-USA TODAY Sports
(Alabama: Wing, Freshman, 6-9)
Previous rank: 22 (+16)
Best rank: 3 (Yahoo)
Worst rank: 16
One NBA scout compared Brandon Miller to Paul George and projected his range as high as third overall and as low as seventh.
Miller vaulted from outside the Top 20 prospects to Top 5 consideration thanks to a hot start to the season averaging 20.1 points on 44.2 percent from downtown on 7.2 attempts and 8.2 rebounds per game for Alabama.
His coming out party came against Gonzaga, who he torched for 36 points, including 6-of-11 shooting from downtown.
7. Keyonte George
Chris Jones-USA TODAY Sports
(Baylor: Guard, Freshman, 6-4)
Previous rank: 13 (+6)
Best rank: 4 (For The Win)
Worst rank: 15
Keyonte George had 20 points and two steals against Virginia and 18 points, six rebounds, and two steals against Gonzaga, with several NBA talent evaluators watching over the past month.
According to multiple NBA talent evaluators at the G League Showcase in Las Vegas, George is currently projected as a Top 10 pick.
While his field goal percentage (.390) and three-point percentage (.326) leave more to be desired, George’s free throw percentage (.824) gives talent evaluators optimism his overall efficiency will improve over time.
8. Cason Wallace
Jordan Prather-USA TODAY Sports
(Kentucky: Guard, Freshman, 6-4)
Previous rank: 11 (+3)
Best rank: 6 (CBS Sports)
Worst rank: 18
Cason Wallace has moved into the Top 10 picks thanks to playing both sides of the ball efficiently for the Wildcats thus far.
Wallace is one of the top defenders in the country, averaging 2.5 steals per game, and has proven to be a knockdown three-point shooter at a 50 percent clip. The floor general ranks third in assists per game (4.4) in the SEC.
9. Cameron Whitmore
Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports
(Villanova: Wing, Freshman, 6-6)
Previous rank: 7 (-2)
Best rank: 5 (The Athletic, Bleacher Report)
Worst rank: 14
Whitmore dominated for the USA Basketball U18 team at the FIBA U18 Americas this past summer, where he helped win a gold medal by averaging 18.7 points while shooting over 70 percent inside the arc and 45.5 percent from beyond the arc and grabbed 6.3 rebounds.
Since returning in early December from thumb surgery, Cam Whitmore has shown elite athleticism with the leaping ability of a human pogo stick and strength at 230 pounds to muscle his way into the paint for Villanova.
Whitmore is viewed as a Top 10 pick with the upside to finish the season closer to a top-five pick range, according to several NBA executives and scouts.
10. Jarace Walker
Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports
(Houston: Big, Freshman, 6-8)
Previous rank: 17 (+7)
Best rank: 5 (Sports Illustrated)
Worst rank: 26
Houston’s Jarace Walker has shown the ability to be a three-level scorer, make catch-and-shoot three-pointers on the wing, and create off the dribble for his shot during his freshman season. Defensively, his on-ball perimeter defense is an area he’ll look to improve upon as the season continues.
Walker’s best game thus far came against Virginia, where he scored 17 points, including shooting 4-for-8 from downtown with seven rebounds, four assists, one block, and one steal.
At 6-foot-8 and 240 pounds, Walker has an NBA-ready body that intrigues talent evaluators at the next level.
11. Anthony Black
Brett Rojo-USA TODAY Sports
(Arkansas: Guard, Freshman, 6-7)
Previous rank: 9 (-2)
Best rank: 4 (NBADraft.net)
Worst rank: 30
Arkansas freshman Anthony Black has intriguing size for his position at 6-foot-7 and a physique reminiscent of former three-time NBA champion Shaun Livingston.
Black’s all-around game has intrigued NBA talent evaluators with his efficiency shooting from the field (.515) and beyond the arc (.394) and defense (1.8 steals). As a lead guard, Black will need to curtail his turnover rate (2.8).
12. Kel'el Ware
Soobum Im-Getty Images
(Oregon: Big, Freshman, 7-0)
Previous rank: 10 (-2)
Best rank: 5 (SB Nation)
Worst rank: 28
Oregon’s Kel’el Ware is an athletic 7-footer who runs the floor well and can jump out of the gym. Despite playing 22.5 minutes, Ware has become one of the top shot blockers in college basketball, ranking fourth in blocks per game (1.7) and block percentage (8.5).
Offensively, Ware’s fluid stroke from beyond the arc intrigues NBA talent evaluators for future upside. Ware’s next step in his development will be defending pick-and-roll switches and perimeter defense.
13. Dariq Whitehead
Rob Kinnan-USA TODAY Sports
(Duke: Wing, Freshman, 6-6)
Previous rank: 5 (-8)
Best rank: 6 (Sports Illustrated)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in one mock draft)
Duke’s Dariq Whitehead saw his stock take a hit after needing surgery on his fractured right foot. However, his NBA-ready size at 6-foot-7, 220 pounds, reminiscent of Lance Stephenson, intrigues NBA scouts and executives and helped him retain his projected lottery pick draft range.
“He can have some big scoring games, and he can also really impact the game with his versatility,” Duke coach Jon Scheyer said of Whitehead. “I don’t think he’s shown yet, and I think you’ll see soon what type of defender he can be too. With his size and athleticism, he can guard multiple positions.”
14. GG Jackson
Jeff Blake-USA TODAY Sports
(South Carolina: Big, Freshman, 6-10)
Previous rank: 43 (+29)
Best rank: 7 (NBADraft.net)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in one mock draft)
Gregory “GG” Jackson was the biggest riser of any player in the projected lottery moving up 29 spots on the aggregate draft board amongst the 10 mocks polled to round out the lottery.
Jackson, who recently just turned 18, has NBA three-point range and a good handle for a player his size.
He leads the SEC in field goal attempts (180) and ranks third in the conference in usage percentage (29.2). At times, his shot selection and defensive engagement can use improvement.
15. Terquavion Smith
Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports
(NC State: Guard, Sophomore, 6-4)
Previous rank: 14 (-1)
Best rank: 14 (Bleacher Report, SB Nation)
Worst rank: 28
NC State’s Terquavion Smith remains a borderline lottery prospect in the second edition of the aggregate mock draft.
After returning for his sophomore season, Smith has improved as a playmaker, increasing his assist distribution from 2.1 to 5.4 assists per game.
Smith recently signed with agent Todd Ramasar of Life Sports Agency for NIL representation.
16. Dillon Mitchell
Scott Wachter-USA TODAY Sports
(Texas: Wing, Freshman, 6-7)
Previous rank: 12 (-4)
Best rank: 7 (Yahoo)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in one mock draft)
Texas forward Dillon Mitchell has intrigued NBA personnel with his athleticism, defensive versatility, and motor.
Mitchell boasts the fourth-highest offensive rebound percentage (12.0) and fifth-best defensive rating (84.6) in the Big 12 Conference.
Offensively, Mitchell has room to expand his range.
17. Gradey Dick
Jay Biggerstaff-USA TODAY Sports
(Kansas: Wing, Freshman, 6-7)
Previous rank: 18 (+1)
Best rank: 11 (NBADraft.net)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in one mock draft)
Gradey Dick ranks second in offensive rating (126.9) and three-pointers made (34) in the Big 12 Conference.
At 6-foot-8, he has good size for the swingman position and can move without the ball to get open. His ability to create off the dribble is an area he’ll look to improve over the rest of the season.
He drew comparisons athletically to Donte DiVincenzo and Christian Braun from one NBA scout who spoke with HoopsHype.
“He’s a better athlete than given credit for with good size,” the NBA scout said.
18. Rayan Rupert
Phil Walter/Getty Images
(New Zealand Breakers: Wing, International, 6-6)
Previous rank: 26 (+8)
Best rank: 14 (Sports Illustrated)
Worst rank: NR (not ranked)
(Not included in two mock drafts)
Rayan Rupert cracked the Top 20 picks thanks to his freakish 7-foot-3 wingspan, on-ball defense, and ability to knock down threes as a spot-up shooter along the wings.
19. Kris Murray
Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports
(Iowa: Wing, Junior, 6-8)
Previous rank: 20 (+1)
Best rank: 13 (NBADraft.net)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in one mock draft)
After being overshadowed by his brother, Keegan, Kris Murray has broken out in his junior season at Iowa, including a 31-point, 20-rebound effort versus Georgia Tech at home.
One NBA executive who spoke with HoopsHype has Murray penciled in as a first-round pick.
At the next level, Murray projects as a pick-and-pop forward who can stretch the floor and occasionally get to the rim on fake dribble handoffs.
20. Dereck Lively
Troy Wayrynen-USA TODAY Sports
(Duke: Big, Freshman, 7-1)
Previous rank: 8 (-12)
Best rank: 5 (For The Win)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in one mock draft)
Duke’s Dereck Lively fell the furthest of any projected lottery pick from the first installment of the aggregate mock draft.
In high school, Lively displayed an ability to stretch the floor and was an elite shot blocker. His defense has transitioned to the next level at Duke, where he ranks second in the ACC in blocks (2.0) despite playing only 17.5 minutes per game.
Lively, who was the No. 1 recruit on ESPN’s 2022 recruiting rankings, still has time to live up to the hype at Duke and remains an intriguing prospect in the eyes of NBA executives.
21. Tyrese Proctor
Rob Kinnan-USA TODAY Sports
(Duke: Guard, Freshman, 6-5)
Previous rank: NR (not ranked)
Best rank: 13 (The Athletic)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in three mock drafts)
Duke’s Tyrese Proctor has begun to play better over his last six games, averaging 11 points on 44.9 percent shooting, which included his best game against Purdue with 16 points, five rebounds, and three assists.
Proctor’s 96.2 defensive rating ranks 18th overall in the ACC.
22. Leonard Miller
Lucas Peltier-USA TODAY Sports
(Ignite: Wing, G League, 6-10)
Previous rank: 16 (-6)
Best rank: 16 (CBS Sports)
Worst rank: 41
Canadian prospect Leonard Miller has made the most of his decision to bypass the NBA Draft and spend the season in the G League with the Ignite developing his game, averaging 15.1 points on 50 percent shooting from the field with 8.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.1 steals per game.
The 6-foot-10 forward has shown a good handle for his size and motor. Miller’s low release on his jumper and overall three-point percentage (27.5) is an area of his game he’ll look to develop over the rest of the season with the Ignite.
“He’ll either flame out as a talented kid who didn’t figure it out, or the Ignite will help him develop and take his game to another level,” an NBA executive told HoopsHype. “He’s an interesting player. A year with Ignite should be helpful. He’s got decent instincts.”
23. Jett Howard
Rick Osentoski-USA TODAY Sports
(Michigan: Guard, Freshman, 6-8)
Previous rank: 94 (+71)
Best rank: 14 (ESPN)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in three mock drafts)
Michigan freshman Jett Howard tied for the largest overall leap on the aggregate mock draft board, vaulting 71 spots.
The 6-foot-8 guard has been a sniper beyond the arc, boasting the third-highest three-point percentage (.403) in the Big Ten. He’s also shown an ability to slash to the rim and penetrate off the dribble.
24. Sidy Cissoko
Ethan Miller-Getty Images
(Ignite: Wing, G League, 6-7)
Previous rank: 24 (-)
Best rank: 22 (ESPN)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in three mock drafts)
Sidy Cissoko, the French U18 National Team star, has good size for a swingman and quick feet to be a good on-ball defender.
With Ignite, Cissoko has shown flashes as a playmaker at times. As the season progresses, he’ll look to improve the consistency of his jumper.
25. Marcus Sasser
Marvin Gentry-USA TODAY Sports
(Houston: Guard, Senior, 6-2)
Previous rank: 29 (+4)
Best rank: 24 (The Athletic)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in three mock drafts)
Houston’s senior guard Marcus Sasser leads the AAC in win shares (2.7), ranks fourth in defensive rating (81.3), and fifth in PER (23.7).
The 6-foot-2 combo guard intrigues NBA talent evaluators with his self-creation, shot versatility, and touch.
26. Kyle Filipowski
Rob Kinnan-USA TODAY Sports
(Duke: Big, Freshman, 6-11)
Previous rank: 21 (-5)
Best rank: 13 (ESPN)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in three mock drafts)
Duke’s Kyle Filipowski has been an anchor in the paint leading the ACC in defensive rating (85.4) and ranking third in total rebound percentage (18.7) while showing some offensive flashes of versatility.
27. Arthur Kaluma
Ron Jenkins-Getty Images
(Creighton: Wing, Sophomore, 6-7)
Previous rank: 19 (-8)
Best rank: 13 (CBS Sports)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in two mock drafts)
The biggest development in Arthur Kaluma’s game has been his three-point percentage (.265 to .328) this season. His NBA-ready physique and on-ball defensive versatility have made him a prospect worth monitoring for executives.
28. Maxwell Lewis
James Snook-USA TODAY Sports
(Pepperdine: Wing, Sophomore, 6-7)
Previous rank: 99 (+71)
Best rank: 14 (NBADraft.net)
Worst rank: Not ranked (not included in two mock drafts)
Maxwell Lewis tied for the largest overall leap with Jett Howard on the aggregate mock draft board vaulting 71 spots thanks to a breakout sophomore season, averaging 19.4 points on 53.3 percent shooting from the field and 42.9 percent from downtown.
NBA talent evaluators are monitoring Lewis’ growth this season and 3-and-D potential as a swingman for the next level.
