HT: 6’8″  WT: 204  WINGSPAN: 6’11”   Age: 19

Jayson Tatum shows up at No. 5 in our consensus mock, but some of our individual mocks had him going off the board at No. 3 to the Boston Celtics. Some have opined that the C’s may have even traded down to select him.

In any event, Tatum has really good size and length on the wing and has a solid frame that could help him add strength over time. He’s highly skilled; a strong offensive player, good in transition and should be able to contribute immediately at the NBA level.
