What about the Knicks at No. 8?

Five of the eight mock drafts see the Knicks, who have become increasingly international, going for the only foreign-based player creating top 10 buzz, Frank Ntilikina, an 18-year-old French guard who plays for Strasbourg. Two think they will take Monk and one goes for Smith.

What to Watch for in Round 1

Will any upperclassmen go high? Only one of the mock drafts has an upperclassman in the top 10. CBS lists sophomore Luke Kennard of Duke at No. 10.

What about other college stars? Frank Mason III of Kansas was the Naismith college player of the year. But so were Jimmer Fredette and Tyler Hansbrough. Mason, along with other college stars like Josh Hart of Villanova and Caleb Swanigan of Purdue is projected to go in the second round.

Who is Markelle Fultz? A 6-4 point guard who averaged 23 points and 6 assists in his freshman year at Washington. That’s the good news. The bad news is that Washington was terrible, going 9-22 and losing their last 13 straight. It’s not all Fultz’s fault, of course, but it has raised questions about his desire and leadership.

Is there a sleeper? The second round is notoriously guesswork, with a few greats like Draymond Green alongside many complete busts. So we’re guessing too, but how about Jonah Bolden? He grew up in Australia, spent some time at American prep schools and had a brief cameo at U.C.L.A., then turned up playing professionally in Serbia, where he was the Adriatic League young player of the year. Bolden’s peripatetic career has kept him under the radar. And in a draft loaded with smaller players, he’s 6-10.

How long do the teams get to pick? Five minutes in the first round and two in the second. That makes the event a much faster show than the N.F.L. draft, which allows an interminable 10 minutes in Round 1.
