The NBA Draft is just days away and Es Baraheni is here with guest and NBA Draft expert Ben Pfeifer to discuss the draft through a first round mock draft. Es and Ben discuss which players will go in the lottery, and how good the 2026 draft class is. Why Cam Boozer, AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson could change franchises. Which guard in the 5-10 range will make the biggest difference? Which late lottery pick is the biggest sleeper?
