The 2023 NBA Draft is just around the corner.
With players showcasing their skills at last month's NBA Draft Combine, along with individual workouts with NBA teams in recent weeks, franchises are beginning to have a clearer picture of which prospects will be taken in the lottery and first round.
Outside of the big names, a key indicator of who the lottery picks will be can be surmised from which players receive green room invites.
To decide who makes the cut for the green room, presidents or general managers of teams picking in the first round are asked to vote on the top 25 players they expect to be selected in the draft.
