Vecenie just put out a 2nd round mock:
https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6450435/2025/06/26/nba-mock-draft-round-2-kam-jones-tyrese-proctor/31. Minnesota - Rasheer Fleming
Fleming fits the Tim Connelly archetype that he’s previously drafted in the second round, as a toolsy, athletic big at 6-foot-8 with a 7-5 wingspan (see: Josh Minott and Leonard Miller). I think he’s a bit more of a big than a wing and might be position locked at power forward, but Fleming improved as a shooter this year and has some real athleticism that allows him to make a big impact. He needs to improve his overall feel for the game and continue to grow as a passer and decision-maker.
32. Boston - Maxime Raynaud
Raynaud has the kind of game that has to appeal to the Celtics. He’s a big man who can dribble, pass and shoot the basketball after averaging 20 points and 10 rebounds last season at Stanford. He’s not the best passer in the world, and he’s a bit slow. But he’s also highly intelligent and has been on a rapidly positive ascent over the last six years of his basketball career. It’s easy to buy into him continuing to work to figure it out.
33. Charlotte - Sion James
James is one of the draft’s best bets to become a serious defender, as the big, physical guard can take on assignments across the positional spectrum with serious switchability and make disruptive plays with how strong his hands are. Offensively, it’s a bit more of an adventure, but he makes good decisions and has shown some improvement as a shooter over the last two years. The NBA playoffs showed that players such as this are in high demand.
