In order to always be well informed about the latest gossip that animates the League, nothing better than a little homemade morning, where you can find all the most recent information before the Draft. Let’s go!

Before going any further, maybe a little coffee?

Pick #1

???? Currently, Orlando will select Jabari Smith with the 1st pick of the 2022 Draft.

Everything can change by Thursday evening, but 4 days before the event most indicators and mock gather on Jabari Smith in 1st pick at the Magic.

If change: Holmgren. pic.twitter.com/6YfrE215Qy

Pick #2

???? Chet Holmgren is projected to OKC as the 2nd pick of the 2022 Draft, right now.

The Thunder would apparently be happy to get either Holmgren or Jabari Smith back.

Sam Presti will receive offers for this pick 2 until the buzzer, but no upcoming trades. pic.twitter.com/QEgXwFb1B4

Pick #3

???? Paolo Banchero in Houston in 3rd choice of the Draft, it’s confirmed.

Contrary to recent rumors, Banchero and his camp would not be “against” playing in Houston, quite the contrary.

Pick #4/Kings

???? The Kings in 4th place: it remains unclear, and it will certainly be the case until the buzzer.

Jaden Ivey appears to be ahead of Keegan Murray, Sacramento would draft the better talent of the two and see how they do next.

Trade quite possible, ultra desired pick. pic.twitter.com/Q5EtnOG9ZR

???? Kyle Kuzma + Wizards 10th pick vs. Kings 4th pick? Case to follow.

Kuzma nearly landed in Sacramento for the past few months, there’s history. The Kings are aiming for the Playoffs and could drop in the Draft to add Kuzma’s experience. pic.twitter.com/KD2BTYAGvB

# Thunder

???? The rumor that is making its way right now: the Thunder would try to have a 2th choice in the Top 10 of the Draft 2022.

Main targets: Portland (7) and Pelicans (8). The Kings (4) could ask a lot in exchange.

OKC has pick 12, so going up is possible. pic.twitter.com/Z2WUGde0s6

# Wizards

???? The Wizards are listening to offers regarding their pick 10, associated with one of their players (Hachimura, Bryant, Avdija), in order to strengthen their workforce.

Grizzlies

???? The Grizzlies would try to go up to the Draft.

Memphis is in possession of picks 22 and 29, they have a very fine nose on the latest Drafts, and management could create a package to target a particular player.

Like Ziaire Williams last year. pic.twitter.com/Q8UmoHtMQk

# Bulls

???? The Bulls are listening to their Draft pick 18.

A package with the 18+ Coby White pick has reportedly been discussed at some franchises, to see if that moves further by Thursday night.

White isn’t really wanted in Chicago anymore, and that’s not new. pic.twitter.com/fJVsjZdN9y

# Rockets

???? As for months, Houston would be looking to get a draft pick in exchange for Eric Gordon.

Ideally a first round, if not the second round. Not surprised if a deal falls by Thursday evening, the management of the Rockets definitely wants to turn the page (Wood in Dallas). pic.twitter.com/vRZa5EnknO

# Sixers

???? The Sixers have pick 23 of the Draft and Danny Green was seriously injured in the Playoffs: ongoing discussions.

Philadelphia wants to strengthen its wings and could mount a package. It’s hard to imagine integrating Thybulle, but if the right opportunity arises… pic.twitter.com/ows3qiqaAu

# Hornets

The Charlotte franchise has picks #13 and #15, but they shouldn’t keep both. According HoopsHype, the Hornets are looking for a confirmed player who can help them in their quest for the Playoffs (they remain on two consecutive eliminations in the play-in tournament), and for that they could sacrifice one of the two picks. File to watch closely therefore. It is also recalled that Charlotte still does not have a coach at the present time, Kenny Atkinson having finally decided to put a rabbit on the Hornets. Not ideal when approaching the Draft…

There you go, you know everything about the latest rumors and other rumors that animate the Great League today just a few days before the 2022 NBA Draft. With that, we meet tomorrow morning for a new complete point. Come on, have a nice day.
