Colben Landrew

2027 NBA Mock Draft v. 1.0 with @CBSSports Adam Finkelstein

The draft-Twitter riser. Sam doubts he starts at UConn under Hurley and sees him more as a college 4 at 225-230 pounds. He's a 6'6, 6'10-wingspan, strong driver with better body control and finishing than Sam expected, and he makes shots. Sam argues Adidas-circuit numbers are inflated by weaker lower-tier teams. Adam says the former two-sport star was never in great basketball shape, and that once he leans out he's a 3. Adam concedes there may be a disconnect for 3SSB standouts like Landrew, Thompson and Cam Williams, but says every circuit has some dead weight.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft

Calls Landrew a thick 6'6 wing with a plus-plus 3-and-D profile: shoots off movement and off the dribble, drives and handles impressively for his role, and is an awesome point-of-attack and off-ball defender. Another player he's gotten higher on.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft | The First Round

Sees a 6'6, 220-plus wing who plays with immense physicality from his football background and leans on strength as a slasher, with a jumper that's projectable enough for the NBA. Flashes of guard-like skill and feel round out his case as an off-ball shooter and cutter.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft

Describes Landrew as a big-bodied 6'6, 236-lb wing who moves well, defends multiple positions and shoots (43% from three for USA's U18 AmeriCup team). Wouldn't be surprised if his two-way game makes him a lottery pick by the end of the cycle.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft (Full First Round)

Describes Landrew as a physical wing with a fairly developed body for his age, and highlights a strong high-school and EYBL three-point record. Sees UConn as a showcase for his shooting and three-point volume as his NBA appeal.
