According to The Ringer's most recent NBA Lottery odds, the Houston Rockets (15%) have a slightly better chance at winning the NBA Lottery and landing the top pick in the 2022 NBA Draft. However, for our first mock draft of the year, we will just roll with Tankathon's draft order as of March 7th. The Rockets have two lottery picks (currently) as they own the Brooklyn Nets selection. They will receive the better of the Nets/Miami Heat first-round pick. RealGM does a great job breaking down all future traded draft picks. The Oklahoma City Thunder have four of the first 34 picks, including three first-rounders, thanks to the Chris Paul (Suns) and Paul George (Clippers) trades.
