Heading into the 2022 NBA Draft, there are three prospects that teams will be tempted to reach for.

There are always rumors of players teams may reach for leading up to the NBA Draft. For those that may be new to the draft, the term “reach” essentially means that a team selects a prospect earlier than anticipated.

We see this happen every single year. Maybe the player had an impressive workout for the team, he may fit a team’s system better, or a team does not want to miss that specific player.  Either way, it’s often something that comes completely off-guard or something that leaves others scratching their heads.

As is the case every year, it’s bound to happen again this time around. Under that belief, we explore three prospects that NBA teams will reach for based on potential and situation.
