Houston looks well on its way to the worst record in the league, and the top odds at winning the Wemby lotto. I'll admit, of all the teams with realistic odds to win the lottery the Rockets might have the most awkward fit on paper for the best prospect in over a decade. Wembanyama is a true unicorn (I know we throw that word around way too often nowadays) and there is no scenario in which he isn't the top pick. Sengun is showing real promise so he isn't going to be bumped from the starting 5 which means you probably move him to 4, although that puts him at a serious disadvantage defensively against athletic bigs. Perhaps Wemby guards the more athletic big and Sengun the other. Defensively I really don't love this but I think the Rockets could find a way to make it work with the versatility of Jabari Smith Jr. who would become the SF in this massive lineup. Houston will likely create a dynamic offense with all these weapons, especially if they figure out a legit answer at the point guard spot.

Take a look at my first mock draft of the year. I plan on doing another one post trade deadline as the playoffs approach, one right after the playoffs and then a final one right before the draft. Still very early so I expect a ton of movement in the coming months. This is all based on what I've watched from these prospects thus far. I try to find a reasonable balance between what I would guess the teams would do as well as what I think they should do. Let me know what you think and who you hope your favorite team picks!
