2024 NBA Draft grades: Live pick-by-pick analysis for Rounds 1 and 2 as Bronny James awaits

The 2024 NBA Draft’s top prospects may not be as notable as some years, but there’s one differentiator that’s worth calling out: It’s a two-day event! So after Wednesday night’s Round 1 gave us some surprises, some trades and some Lakers buzz, Thursday night’s Round 2 promises even more of all of those things.

Bronny James is still available. Other top prospects are, as well. Peruse our full list of best available (updated live) in our live draft tracker here. And check out CBS Sports NBA Draft analyst Kyle Boone’s Round 2 mock draft here before and during to check in on what might be ahead.

2024 NBA Draft grades, Round 2 

by Kyle Boone

31. Toronto Raptors (via Pistons): PF Jonathan Mogbo, San Francisco

This is a big dart throw at No. 31. Mogbo began his career at the junior college level before bouncing to Missouri State and finally to San Francisco. He had a great pre-draft process and profiles as a big forward who rebounds at a high level and shows great passing skills for his position. Grade: B

32. Utah Jazz (via Wizards): C Kyle Filipowski, Duke

This is excellent value at this point in the draft. Filipowski is a former five-star who was an All-American at Duke and ranked as a top-20 player on my board. To get a 7-footer with his versatility past the 20s, much less in Round 2, is quite the surprise. Grade: A+

33. Milwaukee Bucks (via Trail Blazers)

34. Portland Trail Blazers (via Hornets)

35. San Antonio Spurs

36. Indiana Pacers (via Raptors)

37. Detroit Pistons (via Timberwolves)

38. New York Knicks (via Jazz)

39. Memphis Grizzlies (via Nets)

40. Portland Trail Blazers (via Hawks)

41. Philadelphia 76ers (via Bulls)

42. Charlotte Hornets (via Rockets)

43. Miami Heat

44. Houston Rockets (via Warriors)

45. Sacramento…
