NBA Draft: 2006 NBA Mock Draft, Version 3

Without a clear-cut No. 1 pick at this point in the scouting season for the first time since 2001, the next two months will be crucial in clarifying the top of the NBA Draft. For one, whomever wins the No. 1 pick will likely factor in team need -- typically a minor consideration when evaluating elite prospects. And while we've identified the two top talents, Adam Morrison and LaMarcus Aldridge, the next two months could also vault a third, fourth or fifth player into the No. 1 pick mix. Strong showings by Tyrus Thomas, Rudy Gay and Andrea Bargnani may tickle the imagination of a team looking to hit a home run on the limitless potential of that trio.
