Thephrase.id - NBA Drafft 2022 telah digelar pada Jumat, 24 Juni 2022 pagi WIB. Orlando Magic mendapatkan kesempatan pertama untuk menjatuhkan pilihan.

Orlando Magic menunjuk Paolo Banchero sebagai draft pick nomor satu yang sebelumnya bermain untuk Duke Blue Devils di NCAA.

Pada draft pick nomor dua, Oklahoma City Thunder mendapuk Chet Holmgren, pebasket Gonzaga Bulldogs yang mempunyai tubuh kurus kering.

Dalam draft pick nomor tiga, Houston Rockets mendapuk Jabari Smith, power forward alumni Auburn Tigers dan masih berusia 19 tahun.

Pebasket Iowa, Keegan Murray dipilih Sacramento Kings di urutan keempat draft pick. Pemain Purdue Boilermakers, Jaden Ivey dipercaya Detroit Pistons pada draft pick kelima.

Sementara itu, pebasket Filipina, Kai Sotto tidak terpilih dalam NBA Draft 2022. Padahal, pemain berusia 20 tahun itu telah mengikuti latihan bersama New York Knicks dan Golden State Warriors.

Publik Filipina telah heboh menantikan Kai Sotto sebagai pemain kelahiran Asia Tenggara (ASEAN) pertama yang masuk lewat NBA Draft.

Penyebab Kai Sotto tidak terpilih konon dirinya menolak bermain di NBA Summer League. Ia memprioritaskan bermain untuk Timnas Filipina di FIBA Asia Cup 2022.

Akan tetapi, Kai Sotto masih bisa bermain di NBA musim depan dengan jalur lain. Ia dapat dipilih oleh para peserta melalui skema undrafted.
