NBA Mock Draft 1.0: Getting to know Paolo Banchero, Chet Holmgren
27. Memphis Grizzlies (via Utah) – Allen Flanigan, F, Auburn
After an Achilles injury, the hope is that Allen Flanigan returns to the court at some point in December. Flanigan should be a strong contributor for the Tigers this season if he can successfully return to health.
28. Miami Heat (via Brooklyn) – A.J. Griffin, F, Duke
We know how much the Miami Heat loves Duke prospects and how much they love reclamation projects. A.J. Griffin would give the Heat the best of both of those worlds. Griffin has struggled with injuries throughout his young career and has been brought on slowly by Duke during his freshman season.
He’s a raw prospect but has the athleticism for a wing that you almost have to take in the first round.
