- San Antonio Spurs. Grade: A+ Picks: Victor Wembanyama (#1), Sidy Cissoko (#44) The Spurs won the NBA Draft the second they landed the No. 1 pick in the lottery.
- Portland Trail Blazers. Grade: A+ Picks: Scoot Henderson (#3), Kris Murray (#23), Rayan Rupert (#43) The Trail Blazers landed the second-best player in the draft with the No. 3 pick.
- Houston Rockets. Grade: A+ Picks: Amen Thompson (#4), Cam Whitmore (#20) The Rockets, themselves, probably can't even believe what they came away with on draft night.
- Dallas Mavericks. Grade: A+ Picks: Dereck Lively II (#12), Olivier Maxence-Prosper (#24) The Mavericks absolutely nailed the 2023 NBA Draft. Dallas traded down to No. 12 and shed Davis Bertans' contract while still landing the prospect it wanted in Lively.
- San Antonio Spurs (A+) Victor Wembanyama (1), Sidy Cissoko (44) What do you want me to say? How can I give anything but the top grade to the team that gets a player who has the most hype of any prospect in years?
- Portland Trail Blazers (A+) Scoot Henderson (3), Kris Murray (23), Rayan Rupert (43) It was REALLY hard not to put them at No. 1. Scoot fell in their laps, Murray oozes so much upside, as does Rupert.
- Houston Rockets (A+) Amen Thompson (4), Cam Whitmore (20) Not only do they get the more talented Thompson twin, but they took Whitmore, a top-10 talent who dropped due to various pre-draft concerns.
- Charlotte Hornets (A) Brandon Miller (2), Nick Smith Jr. (27), James Nnaji (31), Amari Bailey (41) Could the franchise regret taking fit over upside with Miller over Scoot Henderson?
- San Antonio Spurs: C Victor Wembanyama, France. The 7-foot-4 prodigy with the 8-foot wingspan has generated the type of praise we have not heard since LeBron James.
- Charlotte Hornets: SF Brandon Miller, Alabama. The Hornets brought back in Miller and Scoot Henderson this week, allowing their decision to come down to the final few days.
- Portland Trail Blazers: PG Scoot Henderson, G League Ignite. This was the easiest pick in the draft, and the Blazers nailed it. They get a second high-quality building block alongside Shaedon Sharpe and expedite rebuilding without having to trade Damian Lillard.
- Houston Rockets: SF Amen Thompson, Overtime Elite. He is a top 1% athlete in the NBA tomorrow. We are talking about 6-7 with a 6-11 wingspan, extreme pace and violent leaping ability.
