The 2022 NBA Draft is getting closer and the teams are beginning to finalize their strategies for what could be a decisive night in the short and medium term for the different franchises.
This Thursday at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn the 2022 rookie draw will take place and right now Chet Holmgren and Jabari Smith Jr. are the two main favorites to be the first pick of the event.
The Orlando Magic have a tough choice to make between the player they call the “White Durant” and a Smith who has all the potential to be a terror to opposing defenses, thanks to his relentless 3-point shooting and scoring ability from anywhere. from the field.
