It's that time of year again. The Memphis Grizzlies are done playing basketball, which is sad, but cheer up because it's the most wonderful time of the year: NBA Draft time.
I've been filling out mock drafts since I was 14, and I've had my fair share of misses, like last year when I had Jahlil Okafor ranked ahead of Karl-Anthony Towns up until about two weeks before the draft when it finally clicked that KAT was really, really good at basketball.
But I love doing it. I spend hours and hours watching these guys play throughout the season, and with a little help from DraftExpress and YouTube, I even watch a decent amount of the overseas guys.
I'll release more than one edition of this, but, without further delay, here's my first top 100 ranking of the 2016 NBA Draft Class:
