Thomas Haugh 2026 NBA Draft prediction: Pick No. 14 overall, San Antonio Spurs​

All picks based on Tankathon lottery projection

Kalbrosky's Analysis:

After winning a national championship with Florida last season, Thomas Haugh was instantly regarded as one of the most interesting players who elected to return to college. The All-SEC forward has one of the top motors in the NCAA and he is an incredibly skilled basketball player. He does not need the ball in his hands very often to make a difference on the floor for his team, and he can serve as a glue guy for a contending team looking to win an NBA title like the Spurs.
