NBA Mock Draft 2017: 1st-Round Predictions, National Championship Edition

No. 9 Dallas Mavericks: SF Jonathan Isaac


School: Florida State


Position: Small Forward


Size: 6'10"/210 pounds


Class: Freshman


2016-17 Stats: 12.0 ppg, 7.8 rpg, 1.2 apg, .508 FG%, .348 3P%


Outlook: If the draft plays out like we have predicted, the Mavs will likely be choosing between two players if they end up with the No. 9 pick. The Mavs have shown a propensity for selecting international player, and Frank Ntilikina is in play here. Dallas might prefer the upside that Isaac offers them. He was once mentioned as a potential top-five pick but that seems unlikely at this point. Isaac's best basketball is ahead of him, but it is unclear how high his ceiling is. What we do know is he can play both forward positions and will be able to contribute in a few different categories when he enters the league. (Getty)
