Who are the 6 all-stars in 2024?

[babyjax13]

Replicating this from last year to see who people are high on and whether some guys may be undermocked. Also quoting another post that shows the history of all-stars in the draft. Who are the 6 all-stars in 2024?

Pick ---
4 guys you think will go lottery
2 guys you think won't go lottery (1 being a 2nd rounder)

Picking these guys doesn't mean you think all 6 will be all-stars but it might help people identify some interesting guys. I may do another thread when we get closer to the draft with the same question.

I've been going through a bunch of drafts just to see how many all-stars good/great drafts typically produce. It seems like very good drafts produce 5-6 all-stars, and great/outlier drafts, 7-10. Obviously, the quality of these all-stars matters for strength, too, but let's just assume this is a very good draft that produces 6 all-stars, and use 2014 as a model. That means:

Lottery (ish): 4 all-stars
After the lottery: 2 all-stars (at least 1 in the second round)

Based on your current projections, who are your 4 lottery picks who become all-stars, and who are your two non-lottery players (including 1-second rounder)?

I think this is a really interesting topic.

So I went through all of the NBA drafts from 2007 to 2019 and I noted where each all star was selected.

I'll let you know after the draft. Where these guys land matter. If they land in Washington, I feel bad for them.

There will not be 6 all-stars from this draft. Lots of starting caliber players and highly useful roll players…but even 3 all-stars is hard to see.

I don't think there will be 6 either, but the exercise is to pick the lotto guys you like the most, one non lotto first, and a shot in the dark in the second round. Basically, if you had to bet on some guys in each range of the draft outperforming their draft position, who would it be?

[Village Idiot]

I also doubt that there will be six all-stars from this class but I will go with :

Sarr
Risacher
Castle
Buzelis

Edwards

Ivoncic

Every one of those drafts had an all star in the top 5. And in the all but 2 had multiple in the top 5, so picking out who at the top of the draft is gonna work out is interesting.

Ah, got it!

The only way this draft gets 6 all stars is if they are on juggernaut teams and get in based on team wins. You can’t predict who is going to be on those teams, so I’m not even going to justify this exercise with an answer.

[FarBeyondDriven]

it's a shame people are seemingly incapable of reading what the post was asking for and not commenting if they can't be bothered to partake. This is a fun exercise. It's a little early but I'll still give it a go. I'm sure after the draft will be a better time to have another thread like this since we'll know who is actually in the draft and what teams they go to.

Six all-stars isn't likely. The best draft classes sometimes don't even have that many. But I think 3 is the lowest any draft class has ever had so it's safe to assume at least 3 from this class will be all-stars just going by history.

*3 I have the most confidence in

There's so many different mocks and we have no idea who is even going in the lottery but my best guess

Real...

[Catchall]

Topic, Williams, Dillingham and Sarr are lottery picks with some All Star potential. Holland has some too, but has a ways to go development-wise.

Chomche has AS potential and could go outside the lottery (if he enters the draft).

Kel'el Ware has some AS potential if everything goes right.

[JMAC3]

Nearly every draft ever ends up with at least 5-6 allstars, so I really don't doubt this one will too. Also think it is important to realize that includes guys that make 1 allstar team. Guys like Jarrett Allen, Deandre Jordan, DLo, FVV, Korver, Teague and Andre Drummond are allstars even though most don't really have nearly that value the majority of their careers.

My 4 lottery.
1. Topic- Multi time
2. Holland- Multi time
3. Clingan- probably gets a Jarrett Allen type of one where he is on a really good team.
4. Sarr- gets 1 or 2

Outside lottery
Saluan- probably has one of highest ceilings in class along with highest bust chances.

2nd rounder
Izan Almansa - betting on talent and that his game will be better suited in NBA.

[RyugaFan]

The guys with realistic all-star outcomes are Cody, Rob, Topic, Holland, Collier, and Kyshawn George. Everyone else has to hit their highest possible outcome to reach all-star level.

[TheDraftGuy]

I think only 4-5 will be All-Stars but these players should be good.

Lottery:
Cody Williams
Zaccharie Risacher
Donovan Clingan
Stephon Castle

Outside Lottery:
Ron Holland
Zach Edey (might be 2nd rounder)

Maybe swap one or two from the top and add Topic or Sheppard in there, somewhere.
