But for those of you who still have an interest in seeing where your favorite college basketball players land, the 2021 NBA Draft is set to start on Thursday night. The Detroit Pistons currently hold the No. 1 overall pick, and the assumption is that they'll take Oklahoma State guard/forward Cade Cunningham. From there, it's the Houston Rockets, but their pick is a little more uncertain at this time. They could select former Auburn commit turned G-Leaguer, Jalen Green.
