What draft creators are saying about Trey McKenney, summarized — jump straight to each segment on the creator's channel.
2027 NBA Mock Draft v. 1.0 with @CBSSports Adam Finkelstein
Sam describes McKenney as a skilled, efficient scoring guard. He shoots it, slashes, makes good decisions, can run some backup point but fits better off the ball, and really defends at 6'2-6'3 with long arms (Adam has a 6'9 wingspan from high school). Adam expects him to be Michigan's best player, but thinks he could become a fringe first-rounder who takes big NIL money to return. Sam allows he could go in the lottery in this class. Sam's concern is that a non-point guard that size isn't an elite athlete or separator.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft | The First Round
Notes McKenney flew under the radar behind Michigan's lottery trio but still averaged 10 points on 46/39 splits as the sixth man. Expects more chances to show his scoring, with plenty of threes, which fits a team that always needs shooting.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft
Says he's very high on McKenney and expects a big breakout year — possibly as Michigan's top scorer — after 46/39/90 shooting as a freshman. A strong, physical two-way player who defends and finishes, and a knockdown three-point shooter.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft
Calls his shot that McKenney goes higher, possibly top 10. Loved how he developed all season as a dynamic two-guard, improving as a defender, passer and shot creator, and expects another big year at Michigan alongside Elliot Cadeau.

Way Too Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft
Calls McKenney one of the most underrated prospects in the class — a 6'4, 225-lb shooting guard who pairs shotmaking with the strength to score through contact. Expects the consensus to slot him in the back half of the lottery and thinks he can push into the top-10 conversation.

Way-Too-Early 2027 NBA Mock Draft | FULL First Round
Calls McKenney one of the best sophomore breakout candidates: the sixth man on Michigan's title team who still averaged 10 points on 46/40/90-ish shooting. Built like a 6'3, 225-lb power guard who holds up on defense, he can show he is more than a shooter in a bigger role.
