2026 NBA Mock Draft: Projecting all 60 picks in Adam Finkelstein's first two-round forecast

Two weeks away from the 2026 NBA Draft and beyond the first few picks and the very top of the draft, there are still more questions than answers. The Washington Wizards haven't made known their plans at No. 1, and while the Utah Jazz's choice at No. 2 is likely predicated on what the Wizards do, they're still working out multiple point guards. That's certainly intriguing.

>At No. 3, the Memphis Grizzlies aren't showing their hand at all, and then the Chicago Bulls will likely take whoever is left. There are a variety of scenarios next with what the Los Angeles Clippers and Brooklyn Nets could do.

>And this is before we introduce the possibilities of trades.

>While there have certainly been some recent examples of teams showing their hand (San Antonio's early commitment to Victor Wembanyama and Dallas' to Cooper Flagg being the most obvious and most recent examples), it is otherwise pretty par for the course that teams are working to keep each other guessing for as long as possible.

>The next two weeks are likely to be filled with some important visits, and maybe even some cancelled workouts, as agents and teams all keep jockeying for position in the days leading up to the draft.

>Today we debut CBS Sports' first two-round mock ahead of the 2026 NBA Draft. While this expanded mock draft takes into account the intel first and foremost, there has been almost nothing definitive to date about which players will go where.  We've combined the most credible intel that is out there (things like where a prospect has worked out, how many times they've visited, where they've done well, and which teams have done the most due diligence) with observations about teams' draft history and needs to come up with this newly expanded two-round mock.

>It's too early, and there are too many variables to consider. So, to complete the two-round mock draft, we'll do our best to put ourselves in the shoes of the NBA executives making the calls and try to find the most logical scenarios. This mock is my best guess as to what is most likely to happen, but not a reflection of what I would do if I were making the picks.
