First (and Final) NBA Mock Draft
Can you feel it? The NBA Draft is so close to beginning and with that, the offseason truly begins. The NBA Draft is where teams look towards the beginning of a new era as they look for a potential star or superstar to build around. This is the day where players find out where they will start their career. This is the day where fans are either elated or frustrated with the event. Who will win this draft? Who will lose? Only time will tell. With that being said, here is my first (and final) 2016 NBA Mock Draft.

So here you have it folks. All 60 draft picks have been filled, and now we look towards Free Agency. Of course, if you happen to disagree with a pick, please comment down below, but please remember that this is a MOCK draft. It's not the real draft. Anyway, I will be completely surprised if I'm right on even 10 picks.
