Welcome to the 2023 NBA Draft Guide, an in-depth look at every player and skill set you need to know in this year’s draft.
This is the fourth year of the Guide Draft, and it gets better every year because of the great team at the athlete Works to provide such a great product.
The goal is simple each year: to produce the most comprehensive NBA Draft report for basketball fans and those who work within the game. I want it to be basic enough that an NBA fan who’s never seen any of these players will feel engaged with them but subtle enough that an NBA executive learns something they might not have known.
This project gets more challenging each year as I continue to split my time in different directions, from NBA and draft coverage to college basketball transfers to Game Theory Podcast to camera responsibilities. Once again, we dived deep into 75 players. But this year, it’s the longest-running product ever at more than 130,000 words. It is a work of love and of potential biblical that I would really love to share.
I’m happy with this year’s draft, and almost excited to explore this guide. It’s a real team effort that requires copious hours of practice the athleteEditors, design staff, social media team, and more. I couldn’t be more appreciative of everyone who made this, and I hope you enjoy. Click the link below to download with password: dr @ ft2023
