With less than 48 hours remaining before the 2022 NBA Draft, the landing spot of the top three prospects is generally deemed a conclusion. The Orlando Magic and Jabari Smith chatter has been too loud, for too long, so it’s probably safe to conclude that he will be taking up residency in Orange County.
The noise surrounding the Oklahoma City Thunder seems to point towards Chet Holmgren, and that has led to the assumption that Paolo Banchero will land with the Houston Rockets.
If I were a betting man, I’d guess this is how it plays out.
