The Washington Wizards have selected Wisconsin guard Nick Boyd with the No. 60 overall pick in the latest NBA mock draft. Boyd, a 25-year-old point guard, is noted for his experience but faces concerns regarding his age.
In a post-NBA draft lottery mock draft, Wisconsin Badgers guard Nick Boyd was selected No. 60 overall.
With only 60 picks in the draft, The Athletic's Sam Vecenie believes there's a strong chance Wisconsin could see its former 25-year old point guard be taken to close things out.
Currently, the Washington Wizards hold the No. 60 overall pick thanks to a trade with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
One of the major concerns with Boyd going into the draft is his age. The Garnerville, NY, native began his collegiate career during the 2020-21 season at Florida Atlantic.
Boyd was an Owl until the 2024-25 season when he transferred to San Diego State. After just one season with the Aztecs he re-entered the portal and came to Madison.
Keep in mind, Vecenie has a 19-year old being selected in the second round. Boyd is the oldest player drafted, while a pair of 18-year-olds are NBA-bound in this mock draft.
At the end of the day, Boyd is Wisconsin's only shot at having a player drafted this year. John Blackwell will be draft-bound in 2027 as he decided he's best suited at Duke for his senior campaign rather than declaring for the draft alongside Boyd.
