Here is my final 2026 NBA Mock Draft: Opinions and predictions have changed throughout the last few days, weeks and months. Let me know your thoughts and if you’d change anything! #Nba #nbadraft #basketball

@pickasidepod Ant and Melo are a lot more entertaining on paper

Who’s the better backcourt 👀

@WadexFlash The floor spacing would be such an issue

Sports Illustrated’s trade idea that sends Ja Morant to the Miami Heat this summer: Miami receives: Ja Morant, a first-round pick (lottery-protected) and two second-round picks Memphis receives: Andrew Wiggins and Nikola Jovic Heat fans, would you do this deal?

@LegionHoops @BrettSiegelNBA Steph, Podz, Bron, Lendeborg, Porzingis Melton, Horford, Green, Santos With Butler and Moody out for most of the year, I still like this squad

Warriors believe they’re the front-runners to land LeBron James if he leaves the Lakers, per @BrettSiegelNBA.

@LegionHoops @BrettSiegelNBA I think that is such a downgrade from Robinson

REPORT: Nick Richards and Kevon Looney have been linked to the Knicks as a potential Mitchell Robinson replacement, per @BrettSiegelNBA.

@SleeperCleCavs @JakeLFischer Lebron going to join Curry or Giannis?

REPORT: The belief around the NBA is that LeBron James is reportedly more likely than not to leave the Lakers, per @JakeLFischer 👀

@Sleeper_Hoops @JakeLFischer @SleeperKnicks @SleeperLakers This would be great for the lakers

Mitchell Robinson has been connected to the Lakers, per @JakeLFischer

@CookedbyRiley Take the chance on him I say, his value is literally cash considerations 😭

The Celtics need a Point Guard

@esidery Was close with this mock

A potential trade framework between the Celtics and Trail Blazers featuring Jaylen Brown: Boston: Donovan Clingan, Scoot Henderson, Jerami Grant, 2028 1st (via Magic), 2030 swap (via Bucks), 2031 1st Portland: Brown

@Fullcourtpass @espn @TheHoopsAlerts Can’t forget about trading Middleton either

The two crucial decisions that initiated Giannis Antetokounmpo’s downfall with the Bucks, per @espn — Firing Mike Budenholzer — Trading Jrue Holiday (h/t @TheHoopsAlerts)

@PolymarketHoops @espn Can’t forget about Middleton either

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s downfall with the Bucks was initiated by two crucial decisions, per @espn. - Firing Mike Budenholzer - Trading Jrue Holiday 😬😬😬

@TheHoopsAlerts @BannedMacMahon A year ago, Naz Reid would of been untouchable

People around the league almost unanimously believe that the Hornets won the LaMelo Ball trade "LaMelo Ball had next to no value a year ago. ... As soon as he had value, [they] pounced on the opportunity to move him." (via @BannedMacMahon)

@ShamsCharania Great deal for Jose, solid work from the Knicks

New York guard Jose Alvarado is declining his $4.5 million player option and intends to sign a new three-year, $14-plus million deal to return to the Knicks, sources tell ESPN. Knicks made it a priority to retain the NY native who played key role on a historic championship team.

@ori_riddleman @ShamsCharania I understand that, I can’t see a world where they wouldn’t have to give up a Clingan esc player unfortunately, I like the Murphy fit tho

@AMBHoops1 @ShamsCharania portland should say no. as amazing as brown is, he's not the perfect fit for portland. also clingan is a lot of pain on top of first 3rd picks. blazers really need a PF more than a SG, i can see portland do it for 3 first + jrue/scoot/sharpe, not clingan. maybe trey muphy

Per @ShamsCharania, The Portland Trail-Blazers have ‘significant interest’ in Jaylen Brown. This trade sees Portland acquire Brown in exchange for Jrue Holiday, Scoot Henderson, Donovan Clingan and 3 First Round Picks. The Celtics have said to be competitive, Brown needs to leave. Portland gets a superstar to play alongside Deni Avdija and a returning Damian Lillard to try and make another run for the playoffs. The Celtics add depth in getting back Jrue Holiday, Scoot Henderson can develop in Boston (hopefully into the player we all expected coming out of college) and Clingan most likely would be the piece to get the deal done, becoming the Celtics franchise Center. Who says no? #Celtics #Blazers #NBA

@FanOfHomeState Would you rather have Brown or Miller?

Well, the Charlotte Hornets definitely have the picks. Charlotte Hornets fans, would y'all pull the trigger?

@JaysGotNext Mocked something very similar

@chicagobulls @CalebWilson2025 I have a feeling he’s gonna be a star in Chicago

Caleb is ready to work 🫡

@401Peck Is it a bit much?

mock trades for jb...GO i would prefer trailblazers as a destination

@eepdllc @JakeLFischer Alright man noted I can do another one down the line

@AMBHoops1 @JakeLFischer I wouldn’t call it a problem. Just thought it would be helpful to do one with BI, since this is what Tor said they would try to do.

According to @JakeLFischer, Kawhi Leonard wouldn’t sign an extension with the Pistons or Heat if they traded for him. However, he would be open to resigning with the Raptors or Spurs. This mock trade sees the Toronto Raptors acquiring Kawhi in exchange for RJ Barrett, Gradey Dick, Ja’Kobe Walter and 2 first round picks. If Kawhi is willing to sign the extension, the Raptors should go all in to bring him back to Toronto, where he won them a title in 2019. The Raptors would be a menace in the Eastern Conference with a starting five of: Quickly, Leonard, Ingram, Barnes, Murray-Boyles. The Clippers add RJ Barrett’s expiring contract, take a flyer on Gradey Dick whilst Ja’Kobe Walter showed good flashes last year. The two first round picks will add some much needed draft capital and they can build the team around their new stars in Darius Garland and Keaton Wagler. Who says no? #Raptors #Clippers #NBA #Kawhi

@eepdllc @JakeLFischer I do mock trades on packages I think work, sometimes with a journalists work or if something else looks like it could as well, only one to have a problem with it lol

@AMBHoops1 @JakeLFischer I don’t get it.
