With the first round and 30 picks in the 2025 NBA Draft books, teams are resetting their prospect boards to be prepared to make second-round selections on Thursday night.
Minnesota will be active with the 31st pick to kick off the second day of the draft. The Timberwolves also have picks 48 and 59.
Charlotte (33, 34) has a pair of selections but Dallas has none in hand entering the evening.
We’ll also welcome the Detroit Pistons to the draft for the first time. They have No. 37 overall.
Here are the top players left in the 2025 NBA Draft pool, listed by Field Level Media overall prospect ranking:
18. F Rasheer Fleming, Saint Joseph’s
Anything but pure as a jump shooter, Fleming’s staggering Scouting Combine workout, high-energy style of play and measurables — 7-foot-5-inch wingspan at nearly 6-9 — assure he’ll get more than one chance to make it all click in the NBA.
22. F Noah Penda, Le Mans Sarthe Basket (France)
Meaty, 225-pound forward is an all-system fit with tremendous strength and basketball instincts.
30. F Adou Thiero, Arkansas
From 5-foot-8 as a high school sophomore to 6-7, 220, Theiro’s arc remains on the rise. Position versatile and hyper-flexible as a matchup defender, Thiero could be lethal if his offensive game rounds into form.
32. C Bogoljub Markovic, KK Mega Basket (Serbia)
A floor-spacer with some range, the 19-year-old is not fully ready for the NBA’s physicality.
33. C Maxime Raynaud, Stanford
It’s the NBA, where 7-1 is a skill. But if Raynaud gets in the gym, he’ll be shooting well outside the paint.
34. SG Kam Jones, Marquette
Now 23, Jones created skepticism about his outside shot in much the same way Jimmy Butler (30th overall, 2011) did coming out of Marquette as a defense-first bulldog who could finish at the rim.
