2024 NBA Draft Results: Second-Round Selections
The 2024 NBA Draft saw second-round picks shine, including Bronny James. Free agency is next with big names available.
The 2024 NBA Draft has come to a close after a two-day event that showcased the first-round selections on day one and the second round today. This year's format allowed fans to focus on the second-round picks individually, with Jonathan Mogbo being the first selection by the Raptors.
The night was filled with minor trades as teams maneuvered up and down in the second round. While no major moves were made like the Timberwolves' selection of Rob Dillingham, many potential prospects found their way into the NBA, including the highly anticipated Bronny James.
Let's take a closer look at the 28 players who were drafted in the second round today:
- Toronto Raptors: Jonathan Mogbo
- Utah Jazz: Kyle Filipowski
- Milwaukee Bucks: Tyler Smith
- New York Knicks: Tyler Kolek
- Indiana Pacers: Jonny Furphy
- San Antonio Spurs: Juan Nunez
- Detroit Pistons: Bobi Klintman
- OKC Thunder: Ajay Mitchell
- Memphis Grizzlies: Jaylen Wells
- Phoenix Suns: Oso Ighodaro
- Philadelphia 76ers: Adem Bona
- Charlotte Hornets: KJ Simpson
- Atlanta Hawks: Nikola Durisic
- Miami Heat: Pelle Larsson
- Toronto Raptors: Jamal Shead
- Los Angeles Clippers: Cam Christie
- New Orleans Pelicans: Antonio Reeves

- Boston Celtics: Anton Watson
- Los Angeles Lakers: Bronny James

While these players show promise, the reality is that most second-round picks may not see any playing time in their rookie season. With teams already filling their rosters with two-way deals and undrafted rookies, these players will face tough competition to secure a spot.
Notable picks include Kyle Filipowski, Bobi Klintman, Oso Ighodaro, Adem Bona, Nikola Durisic, and Melvin Ajinca, who all have high potential but uncertain futures in the NBA.
The highlight of the night was the Lakers drafting Bronny James, setting the stage for a potential father-son duo with LeBron James. As the Draft concludes, attention turns to free agency with star players like Paul George, James Harden, and Klay Thompson available.
