The Thunder lands a strong trio in the way-too-early 2025 NBA Mock Draft.
The Oklahoma City Thunder are in an elite position as they've got a championship window opening that doesn't project to close any time soon. They did so by drafting well to surround superstar guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander with the adequate talent to build a contender.
While the Thunder have yet to play their upcoming campaign, which could prove to be very, very special, it's never a bad time to take a look at the upcoming NBA Draft class.released his "way-too-early" 2025 NBA Mock Draft, which saw the Thunder select Jalil Bethea with the No. 11 overall pick in the draft.
"Bethea is a confident, bordering-on-cocky, shooter and scorer who has limitless range and an array of tools in his bag as an offensive weapon. The Hurricanes freshman has a ton of skill and can excel shooting stepbacks and fadeaways, but his growth in not settling and taking better shots should be key for him and his prospects this season," Boone wrote.
With pick No. 15, the Thunder selects another five-star prospect, this time being Ian Jackson out of North Carolina. Drafting another guard, Jackson is 6-foot-5 and would suit nicely in Oklahoma City off the bench with long-term upside.
