A 2027 NBA Mock Draft by Sports Illustrated projects the Oklahoma City Thunder selecting three prospects in the first round.
Oklahoma City, OK, October 20, 2026 —
A Sports Illustrated mock draft for 2027 projects the Oklahoma City Thunder selecting three prospects in the first round. The summary of the projection does not identify the players or specify where the selections would fall.
The projection is presented as a mock draft, not as a report of completed selections. The available information does not say whether the projected picks would belong to Oklahoma City or be acquired through another arrangement. It also does not provide the prospects’ names, positions, schools or teams, or the order in which they are projected to be selected.
No additional details about the mock draft are included in the summary. It does not state when Sports Illustrated published the projection, explain the reasoning behind the three projected selections, or describe how the choices might relate to the Thunder’s roster. Those details cannot be established from the information provided.
The central takeaway is limited to the number of projected first-round selections: Sports Illustrated’s 2027 mock draft has Oklahoma City taking three prospects in the round. Because a mock draft is a projection, the summary does not establish that the Thunder will make those selections or provide further information about the players involved.
