Aside from a few big surprises Wednesday -- and there were indeed a few surprises (hello, Yang Hansen at No. 16?!)-- the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft largely went off as expected. Twenty-seven of the top 30 prospects on the CBS Sports Big Board were selected in Round 1 overall and 29 of the 30 drafted players were ranked inside the top 33.

St. Joseph's junior Rasheer Fleming, Stanford senior Maxime Raynaud, and fifth-year seniors in Creighton's Ryan Kalkbrenner and Auburn's Johni Broome are among those waiting to hear their name called entering the second round.

The 7-foot-1 center led the Big East in blocked shots per game with 2.7, rebounds per game with 8.7, and field goal percentage with .653. He was ranked third with 19.2 points per game.
