As the NBA Finals take place, the 2025 NBA Draft is quickly approaching. Set to take place later this month, every team around the league will look to improve their rosters for the future.
The pool of talent has shrunk, as 50 early entry candidates recently withdrew from the draft process. Even then, this is still a very talented class with Cooper Flagg and Dylan Harper as the two headliners at the top. From there, several other players have star potential, and there's plenty of depth in this class overall.
