Projected top-10 picks, twins Amen and Ausar Thompson declare for draft

Twins brothers Amen and Ausar Thompson declared for the 2023 NBA Draft, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania.

Both players are projected to hear their names called in the draft's top 10, with Amen potentially selected in the first five picks.

The pair played in the professional Overtime Elite league over the last two years, a decision that forfeited their college eligibility. Both were considered five-star prospects prior to the move.

Though each stands at 6-foot-7, Amen is seen as a point guard at the next level, while Ausar plays on the wing. Both are considered supreme athletes who can finish with flair at the rim.

No Overtime Elite player has ever been selected in the NBA draft in its two-year existence, but alumnus Dominick Barlow suited up in 28 games with the San Antonio Spurs this season.
