But his unconventional archetype and versatility seem to be playing to his favor. 15. Orlando Magic: Wendell Moore Jr. (Duke, SG/SF, Junior), 32. He's currently in a brutal slump that's exposed questions about his shooting and finishing (44.6 percent at rim, zero made floaters). He looks like an easy NBA fit anywhere as a combo capable of making a big impact on relatively low usage. Howard has immediately caught scouts attention with his shot-making and scoring instincts for a 68 wing. 38. 39. New York Knicks: AJ Griffin (Duke, SF, Freshman), 12. Atlanta Hawks:Jett Howard (Michigan, SG/SF, Freshman). Charlotte Hornets: Ousmane Dieng (New Zealand Breakers, SG/SF, 2003), 14. Charlotte Hornets: Amen Thompson (Overtime Elite, PG/SG, 2003). But at 66, he doesnt turn 19 until August and hes already equipped with NBA-level moves for perimeter separation, tough shot-making skill and disruptive defensive tools. Teams should assume his shooting is better than his 28.8 three-point mark suggests, based on last year's 43.6 percent mark and this season's 87.0 free-throw percentage. After a 29-point game against Seton Hall and 30 points against Omaha, a Murray breakout appears on. Detroit Pistons: Keegan Murray (Iowa, F, Sophomore). Boston Celtics:Moussa Diabate (Michigan, PF/C, Freshman), 56. The nation's leader in true shooting percentage and box plus-minus, Holmgren would likely be the clear No. 59. Charlotte Hornets: Jeremy Sochan (Baylor, PF, Freshman), 19. NBA Draft Prospect Team Spotlight: Duke. His range could be from No. The Oklahoma City Thunder are a team to watch out for during the 2022 NBA draft as potential trade up candidates, per Bleacher Reports Jake Fischer in his recent article. Indiana Pacers (via Heat): Jahvon Quinerly (Alabama, PG, Junior), 57. He died aged 67. 24. 3 pick. San Antonio Spurs (via Lakers):Jaylin Williams (Arkansas, PF, Sophomore), 39. Scouts are waiting to determine the legitimacy of his blistering start from deep, considering the three-ball has fueled the majority of his scoring production. 35. Amen Thompsonwas the third overall pick in five of the 10 mock drafts polled and has maintained his current standing as the projected No. A breakout wont fly under the radar thanks to his NBA body and Creightons Top 10 team. The top three might not be set the way it seemed after the lottery. Golden State Warriors: Christian Braun (Kansas, SG/SF, Junior), 29. One of college basketballs top scorers early (24.5 points), Wilson has been aggressive attacking transition defenses, closeouts and ball screens. And as conference play moves along, scouts are learning about new prospects worth tracking. By: HoopsHype. While hes not the most creative of the top wing prospects, the gradual development and strides hes made remains a selling point. But all it takes is one that's willing to bet on potential and blame his bad season on a poor fit at UCLA. He continues to astound with off-the-dribble fluidity and coordination into jumpers and runners. Still, aside from the superstar in France, another in the G League and a third with Overtime Elite, a deep freshmen group will help this class challenge previous ones for the title of best of the decade. Some team may decide it's worth gambling on his unique college success with a second-round pick. Jaquez scores and competes with the type of craftiness, physicality and defensive toughness for teams to look past his three-point percentages and athletic limitations. 4 pick, which is being discussed in multiple trade situations. 41. Whether he can rise into the top-five mix will come down to sustaining a similar level of jump-shot makes, and if he can showcase more off-the-dribble skill or burst once Alabamas schedule picks up. Scouts sound hopeful that he'll return to school, especially if Juzang and Jaime Jaquez Jr. both declare for the draft. They also have another pick headed their way later in the round, most likely from the Los Angeles Clippers. Any production or flashes from 18-year-old Nnaji in the ACB or EuroLeague should feel meaningful. The 13-time All-Star, who was dealt to Phoenix on Feb. 9, has not played in a game since Jan. 8 when he was with the Nets. Jarace Walker enters the Top 10. Denver Nuggets (via Thunder):Wendell Moore Jr. (Duke, SG/SF, Junior). An immediate physical standout at 67, 225 pounds, Kaluma has appeared to have added more shooting confidence and creation skill. Considering Ivey is widely thought of as the best prospect after the Big Three of freshmen, the Kings could pick him and test his fit or post-draft trade value. Teams will show a willingness to stay patient with Thompons skill development, given the level of quickness and explosion has he possesses for attacking, finishing and defending at baseline. His lack of creation, wiggle and explosion is evident, but he just turned 19 in January, and NBA teams should still see value in a 6'8" shooter with defensive tools for guarding wings and forwards. Memphis Grizzlies (via Jazz): Walker Kessler (Auburn, C, Sophomore), 23. Based on the current draft picture, whichever team picks third might not have much to think about other than listening to trade offers. Brandon Millers start has been a hop topic early, with the 69 freshman averaging 20.2 points on 15-of-29 from three. Hes off to a strong start for his team, averaging an efficient 23.0 points on 11-of-24 from three, though there will be a microscope on Bates when in-game adversity strikes. 10. He'll go first round if the shooting continues to occasionally show up. Filipowski was the third-highest ranked recruit in Duke's class but has thus far been the best player not just in his class but on the team. Beginning his career as a sportswriter, Benner then served with the Pacers for 28 years, retiring last season. "Pray for Victor" (Wembanyama), some might say. Hes a heck of a shooter., The key with Miller will be with his weight because he might struggle to guard an NBA four, an NBA executive added. Braun seems to be on the first-round fence. Indiana Pacers (via Celtics):Nikola Durisic (Mega, SG/SF, 2004). Jonathan Wasserman of Bleacher Report recently released a mock draft the 2022 class, which gives insight into where some of the top players in the upcoming rookie class could land. Regardless, the combination of 69 size, shot-making and athletic finishes creates the perception of upside, and thats not accounting for the possibility that he can also add value as a passer and defender. Improved creation/shot-making skills and numbers are fueling Johnny Davis' rise up draft boards, but the struggling Sacramento Kings could put extra stock into the impact he's had on winning. He helped himself at the combine, where he continued to strengthen his case as a wing who can make plays for teammates on ball screens. With a high usage and tough schedule early, George has had mixed performances, though the pros still outweigh the lows. Athletic finishing remains Braziles signature strength, though continuing to build on the early-season shooting flashes will be his key to a legitimate draft-stock spike. Memphis Grizzlies (via Jazz): Walker Kessler (Auburn, C, Sophomore), 22. While the lottery picks mostly seem obvious, predicting their order is not. With a second-round pick, NBA teams could bet on Flaglers playmaking (6.8 assists) and shooting (54.3 percent 3PT), allowing him to overcome his mediocre tools and burst. He originally felt like a prospect for whom teams would want to trade down. Minnesota Timberwolves (via Nuggets): Peyton Watson (UCLA, SF, Freshman). This late in the draft, a team may put more stock into Nunezs special facilitating and passing than the questions about his shooting and physical traits. 33. Foster was in great shape at the combine (6.2 percent body fat), an encouraging sign for a big whose defense and conditioning had been question marks. LaRavia finished the predraft process on a workout tour, visiting teams in the 20s. Orlando Magic (via Pacers): Jaylin Williams (Arkansas, C, Sophomore), 38. Sacramento Kings: Kendall Brown (Baylor, SF, Freshman), 38. Philadelphia 76ers: EJ Liddell (Ohio State, PF, Junior), 24. Jonathan. It's that skinny frame that's the root of scouts' nerves. Averaging 14.5 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 2.7 steals and 1.5 blocks over Arkansas' last six games, Williams is earning a spot on scouts' watch lists. A core of Cade Cunningham, Jaden Ivey and Wembanyama would suddenly have a new level of upside. Aside from the go-to scoring arsenal hes developed to average 22.4 points in 31.7 minutes, Wembanyama offers NBA teams a floor spacer and elite rim protector capable of transforming a team defense. Los Angeles Lakers (via Magic): Justin Lewis (Marquette, SF, Redshirt Freshman), 36. Cleveland Cavaliers (via Heat):Yannick Nzosa (Unicaja, C, 2003), 59. Indiana Pacers (via Rockets):Christian Braun (Kansas, SG/SF, Junior), 32. He's generating buzz as an option in the 20s. Boston Celtics: Dereon Seabron (North Carolina State, SF, Sophomore), 56. 11. The Pacers and Blazers have been mentioned by rivals teams as being active in trade discussions. Even if his tools, limited athleticism and lack of scoring firepower make it tough to detect star upside, every team should have some degree of his interest in his adaptable skill set/ mentality and obvious defensive gifts. Sacramento Kings:Eric Gaines (UAB, PG, Freshman). San Antonio, 14-47, 0.5 games back (GB) 3. That could also mean nothing. Ware has stood out most early for the shooting flashes and his defensive mobility. Charlotte Hornets (via Wizards):Matthew Murrell (Ole Miss, SG, Junior). But hes also suited to play possessions off the ball with a promising catch-and-shoot game from the wings and corners. He's cooled off over the past two weeks, although that seemed inevitable after his start. That's still whom NBA staffers would bet their money on at No. Come June, his sales pitch to scouts will presumably lead with highlight film from last week's 33-point, nine-rebound, six-assist game against the Pirates. 8. Scouts have entertained the idea of Wesley rising up in the 20s or late teens. Sticking at No. However, there's still plenty to like about his three-level scoring skills, point-of-attack burst and defensive tools. San Antonio Spurs:Jalen Duren (Memphis, C, Freshman), 10. Illinois Coleman Hawkins could be an early target in the 2nd round. The Houston Rockets will presumably take whoever falls to them among the group of Jabari Smith, Chet Holmgren and Paolo Banchero. Detroit Pistons: Victor Wembanyama (Mets 92, PF/C, 2004). 46. 13, No. Cleveland Cavaliers (via Heat): Yannick Nzosa (Unicaja, C, 2003), 59. New Orleans Pelicans (via Jazz): Hugo Besson (New Zealand Breakers, SG, 2001), 53. He's back up to 39.5 percent from three after averaging 22.6 points over UCLA's last five games. Keels, Brown and Baldwin seem to be viewed more as second-rounders despite points when most thought they could creep into the lottery discussion. The next month will be key for NBA evaluators, who'll be shaping their boards before the predraft process. The top prospects in this class are guard Matas Buzelis, who will be 18 years old and will play for the G League Ignite, and Cody Williams, the younger brother of Jalen Williams. Scouts aren't sure what to make of Watson, who recently flashed his defensive potential against Arizona (two blocks, two steals) and some scoring versatility versus California (12 points). And chances are, mystery and perceived upside will work in his favor during the predraft process. 2022 NBA Mock Draft: How 3 Trades Can Shake Up the Top 10 Greg Swartz June 09, 2022 The 2022 NBA draft is roughly two weeks away and could feature a number of trades that would. NBA Mock Draft: After Victor Wembanyama and Scoot Henderson, Brandon Miller is pushing Amen and Ausar Thompson for the No. Big wings who can handle and play-make are in, though Seabron's knack for getting to the hoop hasn't translated to widespread interest. And with an 80 wingspan, difficult finishing angles become easy, drop-in baskets. Memphis Grizzlies (via Timberwolves):James Nnaji (Barcelona, C, 2004). 31. Of the Thompson twins, Ausar is a slightly better shooter at29.8 percent from beyond the 3-point arc. His shooting and decision-making remain inconsistent, but hell continue to look too tempting with enough flashes of self-creation and one-on-one shot-making, plus the highlight dunks, slashes and defensive playmaking. More teams than not have been mentioned in trade discussions. 3 with an unmatchable combination of 67 size, elite athletic ability and playmaking skills. Photo by JULIEN DE ROSA/AFP via Getty Images, (Boulogne-Levallois: Big, International, 7-2), Best rank:1 (ESPN, The Athletic, Bleacher Report, The Ringer,NBADraft.net, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, Yahoo, SB Nation, USA TODAYs For The Win). He almost feels slept on considering he averaged 14.8 points on 49.0 percent shooting as an 18- and 19-year-old in the G League. Change of speed, ball-handling counters and footwork help the 65, 18-year-old separate into drives and dribble jumpers. Utah Jazz (via Grizzlies): Isiaih Mosley (Missouri State, SG, Junior), 59. Between his 6'6" size, mechanics, shot-making versatility and discipline, it's easy to picture his fit as an off-ball scorer and interchangeable wing. There are concerns over Juzang's quickness and athleticism for the NBA, but his shot-making is too tough for teams to keep passing on the 6'7" wing. Toronto Raptors (via Pistons):Bryce McGowens (Nebraska, SG, Freshman), 34. Considering the preseason top-five hype forHardy, scouts have been mostly underwhelmed by his feel and athleticism. Cleveland Cavaliers: Ochai Agbaji (Kansas, SG/SF, Senior). Memphis Grizzlies (via Cavaliers): Dereon Seabron (NC State, SF, Sophomore), 48. A crafty scorer and passer who spent the last few years in Real Madrid's youth system, the 6'4" Italian guard has been highly efficient this season in Italy, averaging 12.4 points on 51.1 percent shooting and 46.2 percent from three. 6, and so on.

(B/R) NBA scouts are making their initial rounds for non-conference tournaments and forming first impressions on prospects for the 2023 draft. Portland Trail Blazers: Shaedon Sharpe (Kentucky, SG, Freshman), 8. His scoring craft and touch are special, and they help offset his complete lack of speed and burst. Griffin continues to strengthen his case as a shooter, a label scouts weren't willing to give him entering the season. The Thompson twins are NBA athletes, but in the NBA, youve got to be more than that because everyone is that at the pro level, an NBA scout said, as relayed by Scotto. 46. Utah Jazz (via Sixers):Kelel Ware (Oregon, C, Freshman). While were still waiting for the college debuts of Arkansas Nick Smith and Villanovas Cam Whitmore, Amen Thompson remains the favorite at No. Oklahoma City Thunder: Trevor Keels (Duke, SG/SF, Freshman), 35. While it seems like a long shot for the junior to break out the self-creation, he still possesses an easy-fit NBA skill set for off-ball scoring. Houston Rockets (via Bucks):Marcus Sasser (Houston, PG, Senior). 14 isn't likely to draft Mark Williams, who makes sense for the Hornets roster. Scoring double-figures in three of four games, Starling has showcased a variety of dribble and finishing counters plus confident shot-making skill.

Scouts could see Arceneaux excelling in a three-and-D role for Houston (38.1 percent 3PT, 3.3 steals per 40) and picture his shooting and defensive instincts translating to that same role at the NBA level. 3 pick in the last three aggregate mock drafts. New York Knicks:Gradey Dick (Kansas, SF, Freshman). Hitting 40.4 percent of his threes and 41.9 percent on pull-ups while averaging over a steal and block per game, Smith isthe best player on the nation's No. As the scout alluded to, Thompson shot 25 percent from beyond the arc this season. One of the coaches last year on the G League Ignite said Scoot was the best player they had, an NBA executive told HoopsHype, per Scotto. The Atlanta Hawks have been mentioned as a team looking to move up, so that's a trade partner to monitor. Physical tools wont be enough for Lively to generate lottery interest, as hes looked fairly limited at both ends in terms of offensive skill and defensive speed. Their decision to trade Tyrese Haliburton for Domantas Sabonis signaled a sense of urgency to start winning, and acquiring an older, productive starter could be more appealing than adding a rookie. New Orleans Pelicans: Max Christie (Michigan State, SG/SF, Freshman), 42. Los Angeles Clippers: Jean Montero (Overtime Elite, PG, 2003), 44. Orlando Magic: Jabari Smith (Auburn, PF, Freshman), 2.

Houston Rockets (via Nets): Tari Eason (LSU, PF, Sophomore), 18.

This past week, they've seen the best and worst from the 19-year-old, who followed an 0-of-11 dud against the Long Island Nets with a 31-point, nine-assist game versus the Capital City Go-Go.

Strawther lit up Kentucky for 20 points (and 14 boards), scoring with that projectable shooting stroke, touch shots and transition offense. Age (18), shooting (38.9 percent 3PT) and defense will give him wiggle room to struggle finishing plays inside the arc.

Milwaukee Bucks:DaRon Holmes II (Dayton, PF/C, Sophomore). Liddell (Ohio State, PF, Senior), 25. Oklahoma City Thunder:Trevor Keels (Duke, SG/SF, Freshman), 35.
