Yes, the 2022 NBA Draft is months away, but it’s never too early to take a peek at some of the best young players in the nation, and where they might be playing next year. Unlike last year’s class, the class of 2022 has a lot of intriguing big men. Obviously, Chet Holmgren, ESPN’s #1-ranked player in the high school class of 2021, who is now at Gonzaga, is expected to be a top two pick next season. Down in Durham, North Carolina, forward Paolo Banchero is another big man whose stock has risen immensely since the college basketball season. On top of that, Jalen Duren, the #1 center in the high school class of 2022, re-classified before this year and is now at Memphis, and will be eligible for the draft in the Summer.
