Mullins is 10
Alex at 33

Wagler somehow mocking at 32 is crazy.

Interesting quote here on Mullins from an assistant. Don't know if it's ours or an opponent.

Assistant coach on Braylon Mullins: "I can't get too stoked on Mullins, but he is a solid scoring guard, not a combo, maybe a swingman. He looks like a good defender, though I haven't seen enough yet."

Aggregate 2026 NBA Mock Draft 3.0: A special class comes into focus

HoopsHype’s third Aggregate 2026 Mock Draft highlights a potentially historic top five featuring Darryn Peterson, AJ Dybantsa, and Cam Boozer. As conference play heats up, we analyze a guard-heavy class and the impact of NIL on late-round decisions.

This mock isn't great. Wagler at 32 says it all.

As for Mullins - I'm gonna be curious as to where he goes. He's now gonna miss likely two more games, has shown flashes, but definitely not a complete game. Meanwhile there are kids out there right now doing some really impressive stuff.

The mocks have consistently put him in the top 10 recently.

But I just checked and there was a mock from March 5th that had Liam at 12, too. (Bleacherreport/Wasserman).

Totally on Mullins. I'm just curious to where he does land. He's been in that 10 range in almost all mocks.

Ament is 6 on there. I don't think he goes that high. It felt like an old mock.

Wagler is going higher than that.

Came out on Friday. Ament has been hot recently. He has a 7’ frame so teams are going to be looking for a reason to take him high if he can actually produce. And he has been doing that as of late.
 
I get the feeling Wagler's placement in these mocks would look entirely different if he was the top 20 prospect coming in out of HS compared to his peers who haven't played as well as him.

Wagler is a lottery pick. These mocks will catch up.
 
I saw another that had him 9. That seems a little high right now, but he might get there. There is no way he stays - at minimum he is a borderline lottery pick.
 
All our NBA draft experts jump all over anyone who says Mullins should stay another year. I'm of the opinion another year in college could be good for Mullins. But it always seems like the draft experts on the board are correct. At least they were with McNeeley and Castle.

It’s all about guaranteed contracts and getting the clock going on the bid money second contract

Everyone is talking past each other on this.

"Would Mullins's game benefit from another year in college?"

is a completely different question from

"Given the financial incentives for leaving, with where he's expected to be drafted, and risks associated with returning, would he actually stay?"

The former is "probably." The latter is "extremely unlikely."
 
Braylon is gonna be a steal. He is just starting to show how talented he is. I think he’s every bit as good as Wagler it’s just that injury set him back a little

What is he making here?

Of course it would be good for him. He'd improve a lot if he stayed.

He's also looking at a ballpark of 10 million guaranteed money. There's just not a lot of sense in staying. He could get an injury like Mamadou that means he never plays again--you never know.

An NBA mock draft the first week of February is meaningless

That, and I think past the first 5-7 obvious, there are so many good players in the draft, it ends up being in the eye of the beholder/need. Draft order will dictate some of it.
 
He will be 20 at draft time. Right age to go. He is older than Flagg by more than half a year. When I went to college most kids were 18, do most players (or a lot) catch an extra year in high school to help college recruitment status? This makes Flagg even crazier.
 
28 seems super low but the guys mock actually didnt look bad when going through.

I think its more important to go as high as possible, for team investment and to make an impact right away. If he has a ten year career better that it starts a year later. He should talk to Clingan and McNeeley, two cases for staying.
Expand ...
Hawkins didn’t need to stay another year. But another case of the type of investment a team is willing to make based on where you’re drafted.

In hindsight, McNeeley and Hawkins could have stayed one more year.

AK dipped twice and came back.

Mullins I would say is 85% gone and factoring that for our portal needs for next season, but man if he stays one more year...
