What the Orlando Magic will do at No. 1 in the 2022 NBA Draft -- contrary to betting markets, which have Jabari Smith Jr. as the frontrunner to be selected with the top overall pick -- is the biggest question mark entering Thursday's draft that will no doubt have a ripple effect throughout the rest of the top 10 and into the lottery. And opinions vary on who is deserving of this year's No. 1 selection. That is especially true, it turns out, not just in NBA front offices but with the CBS Sports and 247Sports staff. I polled our draftniks to compile a consensus ranking for CBS Sports' Top 100 prospect rankings -- Gary Parrish, Matt Norlander, David Cobb, Colin Ward-Henninger, Adam Finkelstein, Travis Branham and myself -- and opinions are completely split. Four of the seven had Chet Holmgren No. 1 while one had Jabari Smith Jr. and another had Paolo Banchero. I had Jaden Ivey.
