In the latest edition of our 2020 NBA Mock Draft, the New York Knicks earn the top spot and James Wiseman falls out of the top 5.

In terms of the 2020 NBA Draft, there have been a few updates offered. First, the pre-draft combine and NBA Draft Lottery have officially been pushed back. Both were supposed to take place in May, but have been postponed.

It’s not known when those events will take place, but you’d think those announcements will come when the league has a better idea of what will happen with the 2019-20 season. If it does continue, the draft festivities will likely take place after it’s played out.

With that said, the draft process is still very much underway for many, if not all, teams. That leads us to our latest mock draft.

After playing out a hypothetical NBA Draft Lottery (in which we hit the “Sim Lottery” button on Tankathon three times), the New York Knicks earned the top spot. Here are the results of our draft lottery:

  1. New York Knicks
  2. Cleveland Cavaliers
  3. Chicago Bulls
  4. Atlanta Hawks
  5. Golden State Warriors
  6. Minnesota Timberwolves
  7. Detroit Pistons
  8. Charlotte Hornets
  9. Washington Wizards
  10. Phoenix Suns
  11. San Antonio Spurs
  12. Sacramento Kings
  13. New Orleans Pelicans
  14. Portland Trail Blazers
