Where Alabama duo sits in latest NBA mock draft entering March Madness

Prior to the start of March Madness, ESPN's Jeremy Woo has a pair of Alabama basketball players rising in his latest 2026 NBA mock draft. Alabama has two players featured in the mock draft in Labaron Philon Jr. and Amari Allen.

Philon is projected to be drafted by the Toronto Raptors at No. 18, per Woo, while Allen is mocked to the Cleveland Cavaliers at No. 28.

Both players have been excellent for the Tide throughout the 2025-26 campaign, as Philon and Allen are widely regarded as first round selections in the 2026 NBA draft by a multitude of analysts around the college and professional basketball world. Philon averaged an extremely impressive 21. 7 points per game at Alabama this season.

Allen was widely regarded as one of the top freshmen in the country as well, as the talented forward continues to emerge as a potential one-and-done candidate in Tuscaloosa. Both Philon and Allen could shine throughout their time in March Madness, as each playmaker is expected to play a key role in Alabama's run to the Final Four.
