NBA Draft Notebook: Best Bigs in the draft headlined by Khaman Maluach, Derik Queen, Danny Wolf
The latest episode of CBS Sports' new NBA Draft podcast digs into the best big men in the 2025 cycle.
The latest episode of the NBA Draft Notebook, CBS Sports' NBA Draft podcast, dove into some of the best big men in the upcoming draft cycle.
We began with two of the top one-and-done candidates in Duke's Khaman Maluach and Georgia's Asa Newell, breaking down their strengths, weaknesses, and even some strands of similarities with regard to player comps.
From there we moved to two players that come from a very different archetype in Michigan's Danny Wolf and Maryland's Derik Queen, both of whom base their game around their skill-level. We compare and contrast these two prospects and wrap up the discussion by rating all four.

From there we mention some other prospects that we are personally higher on than the consensus, including South Carolina's Collin Murray-Boyles and Texas Tech's JT Toppin.
We wrap up with a conversation about Georgetown freshman Thomas Sorber, who will miss the rest of the season with an injury.
