NBA Mock Draft 6.0: Final edition, consensus pick for every team
Detroit Pistons: NBA Mock Draft 6.0 pick No. 18
Small Forward. Duke / OKC Thunder. player. 18. 149. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Jalen Johnson
If Jalen Johnson falls this far he could end up being one of the steals of the NBA Draft, as he has lottery talent and a high upside.
He also has some huge red flags, namely that he quit halfway through his season in Duke and there have been come negative reports about his mental makeup.
But this kid has all of the skills to be an elite forward, as he is already a very good defender and can shoot the corner 3-ball, so should at least be a decent 3-and-D guy.
But he has the potential to be more and I wouldn’t be shocked if he ended up being the best wing in this draft. OKC would be ecstatic if he fell this far.
