Back in November we set the pre-season $DRFT IPO prices for the Top 40 prospects in the 2023 NBA Draft Class; now that we’ve officially turned the page on 2022, it felt pertinent to get an updated temperature check on where the draft stock of the class of 2023 currently lies.

Here at the Draftdaq, we look upon a conglomeration of mainstream big board rankings in order to find each prospect’s average stock price. This approach gives us more of a big picture view of where each prospect’s current draft stock is trending, taking away any bias that a singular outlet may have.

It’s important to be cognizant of the fact that the draft cycle is always evolving. A prospect’s draft stock is fluid, nothing is set in stone, and as you’ll soon see, we already have quite a bit of movement from our initial findings. As often happens on our first update, we see a plethora of newcomers that have busted through the door Kool-Aid Man style to crash the party. But for every rise, there must be a fall, which means we also have to say an unfortunate goodbye to some of the prospects that have yet to live up to early expectations.

Before we move on to the Top 50, always remember the number one rule on Ball Street…
