With the Golden State Warriors getting a handful of days off during the knockout stages of the NBA Cup, Mike Dunleavy Jr. and Steve Kerr have the time to turn their attention to the college game in preparation for the 2026 NBA Draft.
On Tuesday, NBA draft insider Jonathan Wasserman of Bleacher Report released the latest edition of his full two-round NBA mock draft with predictions for each pick and pro comparisons for each prospect.
With the Warriors on the clock at No. 15 overall, Wasserman penciled in UConn freshman guard Braylon Mullins to Golden State in the first round. Wasserman compared the 6-foot-5 shooting guard to Indiana Pacers shooting guard Aaron Nesmith. According to Wasserman, Mullins has the scoring potential to impress NBA scouts.
His 17 points in 23 minutes Kansas were not only needed for Connecticut, but he also scored with the type of confidence, decisiveness and skill that can sway NBA scouts. Even the misses looked good based on the footwork and fluidity he showed squaring up running off screens.
Mullins seems poised to have some big offensive games for the Huskies with his type of shotmaking versatility and firepower.
Read the full mock draft from Wasserman at Bleacher Report here.
Mullins has played in four games for Dan Hurley’s Huskies, averaging 8.8 points on 43.8% shooting from the field and 23.5% shooting from beyond the arc while adding 2.5 rebounds per game.
Mullins’ best performance of the young season came against No. 21 Kansas. The five-star recruit out of Indiana tallied a season-high 17 points on 6-of-12 shooting from the field with three made triples to go along with five rebounds and a steal in UConn’s 61-56 win over the Jayhawks.
