The NBA draft is right around the corner and this draft is shaping up to be widely unpredictable.

The majority of the green room invites are out and there will definitely be some surprises in the lottery and late first round, let’s take a look at a few players rising up draft boards.

First up is Providence point guard Devin Carter.

The 62 junior guard was one of the best two way players in the big East this year and had a great combine recording a max vertical jump of 42 inches tying for first out of all players and shot the ball well, during shoot drills, he’s worked out for multiple teams inside the lottery and could be at play at nine with Memphis where his dad, Anthony is already an assistant coach.

Next is Miami freshman wing Keyshawn George.

The 67 sharpshooter only averaged 7.6 points off the bench during his one year at Miami but his passing and shot creation screams upside as an NBA perimeter player.

His draft range is now rumored to be anywhere from mid lottery to late teens.

And finally, the last riser is one of the youngest players in the draft.

And that’s French Wing Pacom dottier, the six time wing is definitely a draft and stash player with a ton of potential.

And with the improvement he made this year, teams would love to get him in their system and work on his development teams in the back half of the first round that can afford to be patient.

Might be looking at picking him up.

There will still be plenty of news and rumors to come as we head into the draft on June 26th and 27th.

And for all the latest draft in NBA news, keep it right here on Yahoo Sports.
