Poll: 2016 Community Mock Draft (Pick No. 14)

By | at June 5, 2016 6:09 pm

The results of the 2016 NBA Draft lottery are in and the Sixers finally landed the elusive No. 1 overall pick after missing out the past two seasons. Now that the exact draft order is locked in, teams can begin targeting specific players who are likely to still be on the board when it is their time to choose. Drafting players is far from an exact science, and many a GM has been second-guessed for his draft night decisions. I’m willing to bet that every team executive has at least one pick that he would like a mulligan for. We at Hoops Rumors thought it would be fun to give our readers the chance to predict the results of this June’s draft, which is what we intend to do with a series of polls.

We’ll continue on with the Bulls, who own the final lottery pick in this year’s draft. Readers, you are now on the clock! Cast your vote for Chicago’s pick and check back Monday for the results, as well as to cast your vote for who the Nuggets will select with the No. 15 overall pick.
