NBA Mock Draft
The InsideHoops.com 2003 NBA mock draft predicts picks
if the draft was today. It's the consensus opinion of full-time InsideHoops.com
staff and our draft gurus.
- Team order is as if lottery results will follow the
percentages. Once the official lottery order is established, we'll adjust. It
should be very close to this.
- This, logically, has every top NCAA player declaring.
As players officially pull out, we'll adjust. But almost everyone we have going
first round is probably in.
- Emeka Okafor (Uconn) would go upper/mid lottery,
but he keeps insisting over and over that he's staying in college. Fine. We'll
add him back if that changes.
Our top
prospects page has brief profiles and stats, but needs an update. Use this
mock draft as your source. It's updated very regularly.
