SI Thunder: 2022 NBA Draft Big Board 1.0

With the 2022 NBA Draft taking place on June 23, SI Thunder drops the first edition of their big board.

The Oklahoma City Thunder will have up to three first-round picks in the 2022 NBA Draft, it's just a matter of where those picks fall at this point. With that in mind, Nick Crain of SI Thunder has dropped the first edition of the InsideTheThunder.com 2022 NBA Draft Big Board.

Keep in mind, this isn't a mock draft or what order we think players will be drafted in. This is a big board of who we think the top prospects are based on their NBA potential.

Let's take a look at our top 30 prospects in the 2022 class. Over the coming months, the SI Thunder team will further break down each of these prospects and more individually.
