Yahoo! Mock Draft Has Us Taking Klay Thompson and Nikola Vucevic

14 Houston Rockets
Klay Thompson SG/SF
21 years old; 6’7"; 205 lbs
Washington State, junior

Standing just under 6-foot-6 without shoes, Thompson is big enough to play the small forward position, and is considered by some to be the best player available at this point.

Houston is reportedly exploring trade options, possibly in hopes of moving up to select Lithuanian Jonas Valanciunas, who will fill a major hole in the middle.


23 Houston Rockets (From Orlando Magic)
Nikola Vucevic PF/C
20 years old; 7’0"; 260 lbs
USC, junior

The Rockets have undersized power forwards galore littering their roster, but the one thing they lack is a lengthy 7-footer with some girth. Enter Vucevic.

He’s not a traditional banger but he’s the best center available at this point. He comes with the added benefit of being able to space the floor for Kyle Lowry and Kevin Martin to attack the rim or for Luis Scola to operate with his back to the basket.
