To no surprise, the French phenom is selected with the first overall pick, instantly making the San Antonio Spurs must-watch television. He dominated the court while playing in France’s top professional level, leading the league in points per game (21.6), rebounds (10.4) and blocks (3.0). At 7-foot-4, his athleticism, shot making and defensive prow...
The national freshman of the year brings length to Charlotte, and becomes another exciting young piece for the Hornets. Miller was a clear NBA talent in his lone season with the Crimson Tide, averaging 18.8 and 8.2 rebounds per game, while also showing some range from beyond the arc. Miller has the size to be disrupter on defense, but what’s going ...
If it weren’t for Wembanyama, Henderson had all the capabilities of being the first overall pick. The first player to sign with the G League Ignite for two seasons, Henderson is explosive with the ball and can shake off defenders at will. He averaged 16.1 points per game last season, and his midrange shooting is some of the best in the class. Anoth...
One half of the Thompson twins, Amen Thompson has insane size (6-foot-7) for someone so skilled with ballhandling and court vision. He has a great feel for the game and finding open guys, averaging 6.8 assists last season. But in the playoffs, Thompson turned it up a notch with 9.2 assists per game. Thompson can also drive into the paint with his e...
The other half of the Thompson twins, Ausar has fantastic size (6-foot-7) for a guard. But Thompson has freakish athleticism and can pretty much do anything asked of him on the offensive end. He can score, pass and rebound, and dominated as a two-time Overtime Elite Finals MVP. His explosiveness on the defensive end is also a plus; he can read pass...
A big point guard, Black is a true floor general and has a great knack for finding open players in rhythm. Black is a pass-first guard but has a nice shooting touch that defenders will have to respect. He averaged 34.9 minutes a game for the Razorbacks, so his durability shouldn’t be a question, but he will need to gain some strength to handle some...
Playing on the same team as Victor Wembanyama meant scouts galore and Coulibaly showed his worth. He averaged just give points in 18 minutes per game, but his improvement throughout the season skyrocketed him up draft boards. At 6-foot-7, 190 pounds, Coulibaly fits the build for a 3-and-D player many around the NBA continue to desire. He’ll take so...
Someone who isn’t afraid on the defensive end, Jarace Walker has a solid frame with a long wingspan that can match up with anyone in the post and can be an instant rim protector. On the opposite end, the American Athletic Conference Freshman of the Year is a difficult matchup for any coaching staff to figure out, as he can overpower smaller defende...
Probably the most unknown lottery prospect, Hendricks might be the most NBA-ready player other than Wembanyama as he becomes the first UCF player ever selected in the first round. He may look slim, but he was just as dominant as any big in college basketball last season, while being able to shoot wherever he wants. He led UCF in scoring (15.1 point...
The 6-foot-4 guard is a strong defender who showed flashes of his on-ball ability with the Wildcats. He also shot the ball well from deep, netting 34% of his 3-pointers in his lone Kentucky season. Wallace still has strides to make as a playmaker but can step right into the NBA as a defensive guard who can shoot. Wallace can assist on that side of ...

- Orlando Magic: SF/PF Paolo Banchero - Duke. While it was not shocking to see Paolo Banchero be the first name called during the 2022 NBA Draft, as many around the league believed he was the best prospect in this draft class, it was definitely shocking to see the turn of events just about an hour before the draft.
- Oklahoma City Thunder: PF/C Chet Holmgren - Gonzaga. Chet Holmgren had been on the Oklahoma City Thunder’s radar for quite some time leading up to the draft and GM Sam Presti got his guy with the second overall pick.
- Houston Rockets: SF/PF Jabari Smith Jr. - Auburn. The Houston Rockets really wanted to end up with Paolo Banchero third overall, but getting Jabari Smith Jr.
- Sacramento Kings: SF/PF Keegan Murray - Iowa. Taking Keegan Murray over Jaden Ivey could very well end up being another bad draft move for the Sacramento Kings, but in the short-term, Murray presents the most upside given the fact that he fills an immediate need on the wing.
