NBA Mock Draft 6.0: Spurs jump into top 3; Lakers offload Russell Westbrook
3. Detroit Pistons – Jabari Smith, F, Auburn
At least for now, there’s a pretty unanimous top 3 – and then there’s everyone else in this draft class. With Banchero and Holmgren being selected No. 1 and 2, respectively, the Detroit Pistons wouldn’t have that much of a decision to make.
With the third pick, the selection would be Jabari Smith. During his freshman season at Auburn, Smith showed enough to warrant him being selected in the top 3 – there’s still a chance he could be selected No. 1 overall.
Smith would be an intriguing prospect to stick next to Cade Cunningham and would help this team take another step heading into next season.
