Going back-to-back in the middle of the lottery for their third selection of the night, the Thunder rolled with Jalen Williams, who possesses a ton of unique abilities as a primary scoring option and ball-handler on the wing. I had a second-round grade on him in the end and am slightly concerned about his feel and advanced age, but hes had an unusual career trajectory and has developed pretty rapidly over the past year. 30: Denver Nuggets - Peyton Watson Grade: A The Nuggets have some guard issues, so Watson makes sense here. A draft and stash option for the Timberwolves here, Matteo Spagnolo is a classic Tim Connelly draft pick. It's clear that Banchero has the size, skills, and savvy to thrive in the NBA . 7) Portland Trail Blazers - SG Shaedon Sharpe - Kentucky. At this point, the Wizards really do not have much going for them roster-wise outside of Beal, which is why adding another talented and confident mind in the backcourt made a lot of sense here. If Brown fully commits himself on the defensive end, he could become a terror on that end of the floor. He has yet to show any interest in shooting the ball beyond the lane, but he showed massive improvement at the foul line (53.7% to 72.7% as a sophomore) and his fundamentals are in terrific shape. The Dallas Mavericks bought this pick from the Sacramento Kings during the draft after they saw Jaden Hardy fall all the way to the second-round. This is a roll of the dice on player development. Unfortunately, Santos also runs like a coach on the floor. Watson was highly recruited out of Long Beach Poly and looks the part of an NBA wing with strength and athleticism. John Wall receives a standing ovation in his return to DC! Even though he shows decent shooting form, he was a low-volume, low-usage player at Baylor and its unclear if he can ever develop into the kind of player who creates his own shot. No. He did a little bit of everything in his three years at Wake Forest spot-up shooting, mid-range pullups (61.6% from 2 last year), drawing fouls (career average of four free throws per game), and a dash of playmaking. With the last pick of the 2023 draft, Wasserman sees the Celtics going for some additional wing depth with University of Southern California small forward Drew Peterson. He has the physical tools to be a quality rotation wing player in the NBA very athletic and he has a 611 wingspan. He shot up draft boards as he was a standout at the NBA Draft Combine once teams got a look at him (then realized he was under-scouted at Santa Clara and did their homework). Nembhard gives the Pacers another capable ball-handler that has good size to fill really any role they need. 17 Houston Rockets (via Brookly Nets): Tari Eason, 67 forward, LSU. No. 47 Memphis Grizzlies (via Cleveland, New Orleans and Atlanta): Vince Williams, 66 wing, VCU. Whether or not he can stay healthy is a fair question, but Golden State really just needs him to make shots, put the work in and see where it goes. Hes got NBA size and a nice wingspan, but needs to fill out a little. Christie has a nice pull-up jumper and shows creative off-ball cutting skills. 40 Charlotte Hornets (via Minnesota Timberwolves):Bryce McGowens, 67 wing, Nebraska. 18) Chicago Bulls: PG/SG Dalen Terry - Arizona. Grant Williams was ejected with 1:52 left. The French native played in the Australian league last season and showed impressive handles and creativity. Jason Tatum said the team isnt focused on Saturday as much as the big picture with his recent comments on the Celtics fast start, via CelticsBlog (hat tip Real GM): Were having a lot of fun, but I think the goal is still the same, said Tatum. Defensively, he has real potential Eason can guard 1-4, is disruptive, gets steals and blocks, hes a strong rebounder, and he does all that at a position of need. The details of this trade are still becoming public, but Detroit worked with the Knicks to facilitate Durens acquisition from Charlotte. His offense needs a little more polish, but theres real potential there. 13) Detroit Pistons (from CHA via NYK): C Jalen Duren - Memphis. How he is used though in the backcourt will be interesting to see given that the Bulls have Lonzo Ball, Alex Caruso and Ayo Dosunmu from last years draft. No. Hes young and could develop into a rotation guard. Liddell - Ohio State. He is a physical marvel with imposing strength at the guard/wing position. Another unpolished and raw big man, Ismal Kamagate is likely a draft and stash player for the Portland Trail Blazers. The Celtics have a little of a 2014 Spurs vibe a team that lost in the Finals the season before (San Antonio in more heartbreaking fashion) and came out the next season on a mission. He isnt a big-time athlete and he is clearly more comfortable playing as a shooting guard, where he is a bit undersized. The top daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on December 10th, 2022. No. However, his skills on the offensive-end of the floor and ability to be an instant source of scoring could pair nicely with Damian Lillard being the leader in Portland. He has the highest ceiling but the lowest floor of any of the top picks. Great value at this point in the draft (the Nikola Jokic pick). 2022 NBA Mock Draft, Picks & Predictions: Bets and Analysis for the Top 20 Prospects NBA Credit: Brian Sevald/NBAE via Getty Images. 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. Its unclear whether his YouTube mixtapes or his pre-Kentucky successes will come close to translating at the NBA level. Sochan is gifted with incredible size and versatility. Hes a four-year college player (two at Florida before Gonzaga) and is more crafty than explosive. How good is his feel for the game? 2, has the better career, but I also think that starting out in Sacramento would have been less than ideal for him. There is a lot of development work to do to Jovic, and dont expect a Jokic-level of play, but there is potential as an offensive-focused big man in the league. 8) New Orleans Pelicans (from LAL): SG/SF Dyson Daniels - G League Ignite. He struggles to make plays for others, and he can often find himself out of position on defense. This is a bet on Sharpes upside Sharpe is maybe the biggest boom or bust player in this draft. No. On a scale of 1-10, he does everything at around an 8 or a 9. But if he becomes a reliable spot-up jump shooter, Davis could develop into an invaluable glue guy on a playoff team. Thats not going to work nearly as well against NBA defenders, but if Eason can diversify his game the Rockets will have a quality player to add to their rotation. Josh Minott has a big frame and is an athletic power-forward, but his upside is very unknown given that his talent is still extremely raw. But he has athleticism that cant be taught. Spagnolo is an exciting 19-year-old prospect out of Italy who plays with a nasty edge bordering on maniacal. No. Baldwin is a player I believe in more than most, and he lands in an extremely favorable context with the Warriors, who will be able to give him plenty of time and leeway to develop, and strongly value their G League team as a development platform. However, his motivation level comes and goes, and its unclear whether his basketball IQ will ever catch up with his physical gifts. Griffin steps into the NBA with a phenomenal physical profile for a wing and elite perimeter shooting ability. He is an inefficient shooter at this point in his development, and it will take time before he can be counted on to consistently knock down open shots. He does shoot it well from the foul line, though (75%), so there is hope that he can improve upon his 14% mark from the 3-point line. However, his jumper is simply nonexistent at this stage. He is built like a tank he can likely hold up down low against much taller players, due to his low center of gravity. Who knows if Procida will play during the 2022-23 season or if he will stay overseas, but he is arguably the best stash prospect in this years draft class because of his scoring and playmaking potential. The crowd was excited. Roddy is a THICK wing with surprisingly nimble feet and underrated playmaking skills. But his one-on-one scoring ability and dead-eye spot-up shooting is undeniable. Some scouts question if he can defend at the NBA level (even though he was SEC All-Defense last season). Most of those players are taking Saturday night off in Indiana. Hes a versatile defender with a ton of physical ability, and hell fit nicely with the Rockets in theory, where he wont have to create a ton of offense and can be optimized as a high-energy forward next to Jabari Smith and Jalen Green. 12 option; Setting the Pacers NBA Draft Big Board: No. Kessler is mobile and active near the hoop. He has the size, shooting ability and high basketball IQ to make an impact right away coming off-the-bench behind the likes of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey, giving Oklahoma City another intriguing young guy to build with. No. Sam Presti gets his man here, as Holmgren was widely projected to land with the Thunder at No. But right now his skill level isnt high enough to take advantage of his athleticism, and his shot needs an overhaul (30.8% from 3 last season and with a low-relase form). He is a midrange assassin, with terrific cutting instincts and a flair for the dramatic. Because BPM gives us this benchmarks: A BPM of 6.0 is All-NBA level. He should be a draft-and-stash prospect to see how he develops. Right now, his percentages are lower than one would expect (38/35/78), but its reasonable to expect those numbers to improve if he is in a catch-and-shoot role. Hes got potential as a defender, too. 16. Hes too quick and strong for most of the teams Toledo faces can those skills translate against the best athletes in the world? June 24, 2022 9:03am Updated From left: Paolo Banchero, Chet Holmgren, Jaden Ivey and Jabari Smith are expected to go in the top five of the 2022 NBA Draft. 45 Minnesota Timberwolves (via Charlotte Hornets): Josh Minott, 68 forward, Memphis. 54) Washington Wizards (from DAL): C Yannick Nzosa - Republic of Congo.

Thats the ultimate goal.. 1. Needing depth behind Kevin Porter Jr., it made sense for the Houston Rockets to target another guard at some point.

The Canadian and Pac-12 Player of the Year he has a role in the NBA as a catch-and-shoot marksman, plus he knows how to show off his athleticism and get downhill in transition. Poole found Draymond Green for a transition dunk the next time down for the Warriors. Purdue guard Jaden Ivey is selected No. Getting stronger with the ball and working on his craft as a ball-handler will go a long way in him potentially cracking an NBA rotation down the road. Hes not a great athlete, which leads to issues finishing at the rim and on defense. Liddell, 67 power forward, Ohio State. However, he wasnt asked to be a shot creator in college, and there is the questions of how much muscle he can add and if he can stay healthy. 10 Washington Wizards: Johnny Davis, 65 guard, Wisconsin. There is a potential NBA rotation wing player in McGowens, but its going to take a lot of work and development to get him there. He is a streaky shooter, too if the 3s are falling, nobody can guard him, but if hes struggling to knock down perimeter jumpers, he has yet to develop the in-between game to help compensate. Hes an elite athlete and that shows when he turns the corner on a drive or gets a chance to finish in transition. His percentages are a little disappointing (38% from the floor, 32% from 3), but he shoots it well from the line and he shows excellent form well beyond the 3-point line. Memphis has traded up to get the No. 37 to the Mavericks for two future second-round picks, source tells ESPN. 48) Indiana Pacers (from MIN): SF Kendall Brown - Baylor. However, he showed last season playing for Unicaja Malaga in Spain that his game is beyond raw, shooting 37.9% and not getting on the court much. 20, and due to some movement around the board, wound up with a second guard they liked here at No. Welcome to The Ringer's 2022 NBA Draft Guide. 42 New York Knicks: Trevor Keels, 65 combo guard, Duke. Hardy is a walking bucket, with a deep bag of ball-handling tricks to get his shot off from anywhere on the court. On the other side of things though, Kessler is an extremely talented rim-protector that should find himself playing 15-20 minutes per game behind Towns in the rotation, possibly finding himself on the floor at the same time as Towns in some rotations. If you had to use only one word to summarize Mathurins game, its toughness. He is an iron-willed competitor who thrives when the game gets physical and a little heated. If he develops his skills he can be a quality rotation player. 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. Roddy plays with a high basketball IQ and seems to have a sixth sense for making the right play on either end. Hes not a top-flight NBA athlete. Not playing at all in college, nobody has seen Sharpe play outside of a high school and AAU level, which is why there is concern for him making the jump to the NBA. I cant wrap my head around what this team will actually look like on the floor, but I cant wait to see it in action. While Washington ended up keeping this pick after attempts to find a veteran to pair with Bradley Beal, Davis pretty much addresses what the Wizards need, as a big guard who can play with and without the ball and step in immediately. No. Its a little bit of a reach at 18, but Terry fits in well with what the Bulls are building. Standing 6-10 with a unblockable release point, Smith can get his shot off against almost any individual defender and knock it down with efficiency from well beyond the NBA 3-point line. He is the kind of no-nonsense, versatile forward that every team desperately craves to help fill out its roster. This is the Spurs again betting on their player development program, but with one of the higher upside rolls of the dice in this part of the draft. He has a good feel for the game, can shoot, create a little off the dribble, defend multiple positions, and is a good but not elite athlete. He is the rare player who is equally effective protecting the rim and defending in space. This is very likely a draft and stash move by the Cleveland Cavaliers. A physical guard who can play some point and do a little shot creation, but also work off the ball. This is the perfect type of center for the Hornets to get. 11) Oklahoma City Thunder (from NYK): SF/PF Ousmane Dieng - France. wing out of Santa Clara has emerged as one of the basketball worlds favorite prospects, thanks in large part to his massive improvement as a shooter (27% from 3 as a sophomore to nearly 40% as a junior). Its hard to accurately grade this without knowing what trade offers were on the board, but Murray is a really, really good player, and was ultimately the best match for the Kings. Detroit is a team looking for a center (they are lined up to snag Deandre Ayton) and could have a good fit in Duren. With the 19th overall pick of the 2022 NBA Draft, Connelly and his team failed to trade up into the NBA Lottery but capitalized on a pick swap with the Memphis Grizzlies, trading back three. 16 Atlanta Hawks: A.J. Having size and length out on the perimeter, Gabriele Procida is a long-term play here by the Detroit Pistons. 23 Memphis Grizzlies (via Philadelphia 76ers): David Roddy, 66 power forward, Colorado State. This is a big swing for the for-sale Portland Trailblazers, who must try to rebuild a winner around a soon-to-be-32 Damian Lillard. He must learn how to shoot it first. Defense is what sticks out about Jeremy Sochan and the San Antonio Spurs have always been a team that prides themselves on the defensive-end of the floor. 24) Milwaukee Bucks: SG/SF MarJon Beauchamp - G League Ignite. The fourth will surprise people, as it is Quickley. If he embraces a role as a heady off-ball cutter, Nikola Jokic could make him into a player. 12 Oklahoma City Thunder (via Los Angeles Clippers): Jalen Williams, 66 wing, Santa Clara. But Tim Connelly has an unparalleled track record when it comes to spotting talent overseas. Smith represents tremendous value at No. But it was about the cash. 32) Orlando Magic: SF/PF Caleb Houstan - Michigan. 14 Cleveland Cavaliers: Ochai Agbaji, 65 wing, Kansas. 38 pick like he did.

He is also a strong, intense defensive presence on the wing. It wont shock me if he ultimately has a better career than Duren, who went two picks prior. Well see how this experiment works in lineups where Towns slides over to power forward. Minnesota just drafted a backup to Karl-Anthony Towns, a smart pick. It was very surprising to see Kennedy Chandler fall to the second-round and even to the No. He represents tremendous value at this point in the draft for the Atlanta Hawks. He isnt a perimeter shooter at this point, but he has grown more confident in his abilities and has made noticeable improvements at the foul line (up to 73.5% from an impossibly bad 35% as a freshman). Ivey is an excellent fit for the Pistons and as I understand it was Plan A for them here. Chet Holmgren had been on the Oklahoma City Thunders radar for quite some time leading up to the draft and GM Sam Presti got his guy with the second overall pick. He five-star recruit considered a lock one-and-done prospect coming out of high school, Davison struggled his one season at Alabama. This is a big upside play from Chicago, who had a lot of trade interest here but opted to keep the pick and take Terry, whose passing skills and energy make him a pretty unique player at 6 7. He is a strong rebounder for his position, but his perimeter shooting needs serious work before he can consider a move to the NBA. Hes going to have to improve on the defensive end to make an impact in the NBA but this could be a steal for San Antonio this deep in the draft. Jordan Poole had 20 points starting in place of injured Andrew Wiggins despite shooting 1 for 9 from long range. Steph and Klay obviously had it rolling so we were making shots., Steph & Klay each dropped 30+ points to lead the @warriors to the win in a rematch of last szn's NBA Finals! He doesnt have much of a jump shot outside of 15 feet and he is raw in terms of overall basketball IQ. Much like fellow Aussie Josh Giddey, Daniels plays with an unorthodox rhythm that creates openings in spaces defenses dont expect. Even though there has not been an official pick yet, it feels like the draft has already started with Orlando keeping everyone guessing as to its potential selection at No. He isnt a floor stretching center (23.9% from 3 last season) and is not an elite finisher at the rim. The Detroit Pistons, New York Knicks and Charlotte Hornets were all high on him and at one point, they all held the rights to him in this draft! Its never wrong to draft a shooter.
