2024 NBA Mock Draft: Pistons drop, Spurs reach with the #1 pick

6. The Portland Trail Blazers select Ron Holland 

A solid wing defender who can also create his own shot, there was a time when Ron Holland would have been considered for the number one pick. We tend to forget about these G-League players, as they are not featured in the NCAA Tournament or on TV at all, which can lead to some recency bias when it comes to the draft. So someone make take a chance on Holland, who has star potential at the wing. Would the Trail Blazers go back to the G-League after Scoot Henderson’s struggles? The Blazers could use a big defensive wing and Holland could be the best one in this draft.
