NBA Mock Draft 7.0: Knicks land Donovan Mitchell; Jabari Smith at No. 1
2. Orlando Magic – Chet Holmgren, C, Gonzaga
With the second overall pick in the NBA Draft, the Orlando Magic don’t have to do much overthinking here. Especially with the way the first pick played out. Chet Holmgren is likely the top player on their board and he would be an easy selection.
Many believe that Holmgren has the highest ceiling of any player in this draft, mostly because of the absurd things that he can do at his size and skill, and he would be a great player to build around for Orlando.
The big concern regarding Holmgren has to be durability. Even though he hasn’t really been injury-prone through his young career, his size makes it a concern. Especially taking him so high in the draft. But that’s something the Magic should be able to look past.
