2023 PBA Mock Draft: Converge chose potential superstars? FULL 2 ROUNDS!

 


Here is our latest mock draft!

#1 DYIP Sedrick Barefield - PBA fans were worried about his signing with a team in BAL. But that tournament will actually end at the last week of this month already. So, he can smoothly join this upcoming draft.

#2 BWE Luis Villegas - Coach Jeff Cariaso is a fan of Fil-Foreign player. They are in need of a center. So, Villegas could be the perfect target for them.

#3 ROS Justine Baltazar - I am expecting Converge to do everything to get one of the picks of Rain or Shine and draft Baltazar.

#4 ROS Keith Datu - Coach Yeng Guiao could fall in love with the wing-like movement and skillset of Datu. He is easily a unicorn in the PBA.

#5 NOR Deschon Winston - I am actually worried now that the fiasco in DLSU and now in Gilas will turn-off Deschon and just try to become an International player instead of entering the PBA.

#6 NLEX James Kuwekuteye - the San Beda connection will be there. I also think that coach Frankie Lim will be looking for a face of the franchise type. James, has that potential.

#7 PHX Brandon Bates - The need for a giant will push Phoenix to try Bates. Bates is a legit 6'8 and maybe 6'9. They need to develop him but with that size, he is already useful for them.

#8 MER Zavier Lucero  - Even with his injury, I think Lucero will still be coveted by the MVP group. Meralco will do the job and hope that Zavier can be a future star.

#9 XERS Ricci Rivero - Rivero and coach Aldin Ayo were on the same team in UAAP. If Converge will use their picks, I expect them to target Ricci.

#10 XERS CJ Lane - Knowing that their manager is very young, I expect the management of Converge to appreciate CJ. If CJ really have guard skills in a 6'10 body, Converge may have found something special here.

#11 NOR Frank Yu - Northport could be looking for a point guard in the draft because Robert Bolick could be gone by that time. With coach Bonnie Tan fully at the helm, I expect him to target Frank

#12 DYIP Henry Galinato - I am really fascinated with Galinato. I expect him to impress teams during the hype going to the draft that he will pushed his name in the first round.
