  • NBA Mock Draft 1.0: the Year of the Big Man
    NBA Mock Draft 1.0: The Year of the Big Man Author : Andrew Parrish NBA Mock Draft 1.0: The Year of the Big Man This upcoming NBA Draft is one of the best in recent memory from top to bottom. From the depth in big men to the elite level guards, we could look back on this class as being one of the greatest of all time with players that have produced in the NBA. Here's a first-look at who your team could be targeting with their picks. First Round 1. Atlanta Hawks – Marvin Bagley III, F, Duke Bagley III is an elite offensive player from all levels of the floor, as well as a high-level rebounder and passer from the high post. His fit next to John Collins will set up the Hawks' front court for years to come. 1 / 8 NBA Comparison: Kevin Garnett 2. Orlando Magic – Luka Doncic, G/F, Real Madrid I went between Trae Young and Doncic here, but I think that the Magic aren't quite ready to give up on Elfrid Payton yet. Doncic is the next best player on the board as a guard/forward that can score from all levels. NBA Comparison: Manu Ginobili 3. Sacramento Kings – DeAndre Ayton, F/C, Arizona Ayton is a dominant low-post presence, and can be an instant impact player early in his career. He is one of the best rebounders in the class, and with the Kings being the third-worst rebounding team in the league, they could use Ayton's interior presence to go along with De'Aaron Fox from the point guard spot.

  • Generating Relative Pick Value in the NBA Draft and Predicting Success from College Basketball
    Generating Relative Pick Value in the NBA Draft and Predicting Success from College Basketball A Major Qualifying Project Report: submitted to the faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science by ____________________ Michael Krebs ____________________ Jake Scheide Date: Approved: _______________________ Professor Craig Wills, Major Advisor MQP-CEW-1901 Abstract This project analyzes existing basketball player performance metrics, and generates new metrics providing context behind player statistics. Using these metrics, we create a chart quantifying the value of each pick in the NBA Draft. Finally, we create machine learning models that predict the likelihood of NBA success for NCAA student-athletes. i Acknowledgements We would like to thank Professor Wills for his encouragement of us to apply our technical backgrounds to our shared love for basketball. We would also like to thank the staff at basketball-reference.com, as their extensive database of college and NBA players made this project possible. We would finally like to thank Jimmy Johnson, Kevin Pelton, Dr. Aaron Barzilai, and the numerous other analysts who’s work informed our own, providing guidance and comparisons. We hope our work will make a meaningful contribution to the growing body of literature involving sports data mining. ii Table of Contents Abstract ...........................................................................................................................................
