The Philadelphia 76ers and Chicago Bulls were forced to forfeit their second-round picks due to tampering violations.

This draft has plenty of big hitters in both rounds. The lottery picks are all strong prospects that can contribute to both win-now projects as well as rebuilding situations. The second round has a bunch of steals that have been selected, such as Leonard Miller at 33, GG Jackson at 44, and Emoni Bates at 49, among others.

It’ll be fascinating to see what these prospects evolve into in the NBA. Not all players end up even stepping onto the floor, so the real work begins here for all of these players.
