Jabari Smith Jr. is the best prospect in the 2022 NBA Draft, hands down. There are other talented players in this class who we will cover in the coming days, but there is no one quite like Smith.
While he isn’t close to where he can be as a finished product, he has the skill set to be an immediate impact player from Day 1. Smith has the defensive versatility of a player like Scottie Barnes, but blends that with knock-down three-point shooting.
Landing Smith would be a miracle for the New York Knicks.
