Ignore his worst category (free-throw %) and he's worth 2.38.
Mind the timing — the DPOY and All-NBA nods came in 2024-25, NOT last year, so don't let a 'reigning DPOY' label inflate his price. The read is steady and a touch unsexy: a defensive anchor (blocks, boards, .55 FG%) whose ceiling is capped by Cleveland's balanced offense and a free-throw stroke that cratered into the low-.60s last year. A rock-solid contributor, not a No. 1 building block — draft the floor, not the breakout.
Evan Mobley enters 2026-27 at #35 on our board — Round 3 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 18.2 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.6 assists in 31.5 minutes a night. The value is built on blocks and rebounds, with free-throw percentage the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-free-throw percentage builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability helps the case: we project about 67 games.
