It's hard to believe it, but March Madness has come and gone. After a whirlwind of a couple of weeks, it's time to take a look at how the NCAA Tournament reshaped the 2022 NBA Mock Draft board.

With the NBA regular season drawing to a close on Sunday, we're starting to get a better idea of where teams could possibly land in the NBA Draft Lottery. That gives us a little bit more clarity as to where each prospect may fall, but the NBA's more balanced lottery odds make it tough to project the final draft order.
