2023 NBA Mock Draft

Pick Analysis. Forward. Taylor Hendricks. 10. 79. Scouting Report. UCF. player

I’m not sure adding Taylor Hendricks is going to be enough to satisfy Luka Doncic this summer and we could see this pick traded as part of a package.

But Hendricks actually makes a lot of sense for a team that needs defense and shooting from the forward position. Hendricks is a very athletic two-way forward, who really has all of the skills you’d want from a modern forward.

The big question mark is around the competition he played at UCF and whether he just looked good against guys who will not sniff the NBA. Hendricks is my sleeper pick for this draft and a guy who could end up being the perfect fit in Dallas if they don’t trade it.
