27. Miami Heat – Patrick Baldwin Jr., F, Milwaukee

The Miami Heat like to take chances at the NBA Draft (see Bam Adebayo and Precious Achiuwa as of late). And with their developmental system, they shouldn’t hesitate to. Patrick Baldwin Jr. could be an interesting next project for Miami.

28. Golden State Warriors – Kendall Brown, F, Baylor

The Golden State Warriors have one of the deepest rosters in the league and it’s littered with young talent. Kendall Brown could be another addition that could go a long way in this team sustaining what they have going at the moment.

Brown is a versatile big that could develop behind Draymond Green and James Wiseman.
