In the latest 2025 NBA mock draft projection, the Philadelphia 76ers stay at No. 3 and select Duke big man Khaman Maluach.

Kurt Helin, Raphielle Johnson and Noah Rubin predict all 59 picks for the 2025 draft in the third installment of their mock series.

Maluach’s size is an obvious place to start; he’s a bona fide big man whose 7-6.75 wingspan was the highest at the draft combine. His youth and potential to make major progress are worth highlighting, too. Maluach began playing basketball in 2019 and represented South Sudan at the Paris Olympics as a 17-year-old. He’ll be 18 on draft night.
