Five players play the finals! 22-year draft reorder: Jayne Wild jumps to the second place, Rockets Jia falls to 9th place

12:50pm, 10 June 2025Basketball

The players in the 2022 draft are quite strong in the early stages, and there are several excellent role players in the echelon who can fill the team's lineup. Although it will take some time to give final evaluations to many players, for now, the overall performance of this rookie is hard to say. HoopsHype's website Frank Urbina reordered the 2022 draft and will finally summarize the players with the largest increase and decline.

No. 1: Paul Bankairo

Actual pick: No. 1: No. 3} Career income: $34.875,497

Career data: Average of 22.4 points, 7.1 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game, shooting percentage of 45.2%, and three-point shooting percentage of 32%

As the actual No. 1 pick in the 2022 draft, Bankairo still ranks first in this reorder. The former Duke star fully fulfilled the NBA's expectations - a tall forward with guard skills, scoring ability in every position on the court, and a steady performance in rebounding and offensive organization. Benkairo has a pretty solid lead among the same rookies, and in recent years he has led the Magic to successfully enter the playoffs.

No. 1: Jaylen Williams, Actual Pick: 12th

Career Income: 13.88 million USD

Career Data: Average of 18.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists per game, shooting percentage of 51.3%, and three-point shooting percentage of 38.2%

Jaylen Williams, who was actually selected in the 12th position, performed far better than the pre-draft expectations. The player under the age of 24 has been selected as the All-Star and won the All-Squad three teams at the best team. His growth into an all-round wing with an offense and defense is one of the key factors for the Thunder to rise to a strong team in recent years.

Tanhua: Chet Holmgren

Actual ranking: No.

Career income: $31.363,868

Career data: Average of 16.1 points, 7.9 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, shooting percentage of 51.9%, and three-point shooting percentage of 37.2%

The Thunder's outstanding performance in recent years is also due to the stable performance of the No. 2 performance in 2022. This mobile-type man with both outside shooting, penalty area ending and top-level blocking abilities perfectly meets modern basketball's expectations for center and has become an important pillar of the Thunder's rise.

4th pick: Keegan Murray

Actual pick: 4

Career revenue: $25.277,000

Career data: Average of 13.3 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting percentage of 45.1%, and three-point shooting percentage of 37.2%

At the beginning of his career, the Kings forward seemed to be expected to improve 1-2 picks in the draft reorder. Despite the slump in the second and third years, we kept it at the fourth pick, thanks to his steady outside shooting and ball creation. But if his performance continues to decline, he is very likely to be overtaken by the next player in the rising period.

5th pick: Dyson Daniels

Actual pick: No. 8

Career income: $17.55555,234

Career data: Average of 8.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, shooting percentage of 47.2%, and 32.7% from three-point shooting percentage, this new fastest-progress player award winner and Australia's defender ranked behind Mobley Jr. with only 10 first-place votes in the selection of the best defensive player this season. Dyson Daniels' three-point shooting percentage this season has increased to 34%, effectively responding to outside doubts about his offensive ability. If breakthroughs continue to be made next season, its pick is expected to further improve in the future draft reorder.

6th pick: Benedit Mathering

Actual pick: 6

Career revenue: $20.948,600

Career data: Average 15.9 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game, shooting percentage of 44.6%, and three-point shooting percentage of 34.2%

Despite a slightly struggling performance this year's playoffs, the Pacers swinger is still an important puzzle for the team with his scoring, rebounds and defense. To reach a higher level, Matherin needs to improve efficiency and stability, but he is currently the leader in the 2022 draft.

7th pick: Jaylen Durham

Actual pick: 13

Career income: $12.991,800

Career data: Average of 11.5 points, 10.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, shooting percentage of 65.3%

As an elite-level basket finishing point, rebounder and high-quality basket protector, the Pistons can choose him at the 13th pick, which is a bargain. Durham has made great contributions to the Pistons' return to the playoffs this season and will hold the team's starting center position in the next ten years.

8th pick: Christian Braun

Actual pick: 21

Career revenue: $8.847,360

Career data: Average of 9.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game, shooting percentage of 52.8%, and three-point shooting percentage of 38.4%

This Nuggets swinger is one of the biggest dark horses in this draft reorder. After experiencing a huge loss in the free agent market after the Nuggets won the championship in 2023, Braun grew into a top role player with his breakthrough and fixed-point shooting ability. Not only was it selected as the discussion range of the fastest-progress player this season, but it also helped the Nuggets enter the second round of the playoffs for the second consecutive year..

9th pick: Jabbarri Smith Jr. Actual pick: Tanhua Career income: $28.083,034

Career data: Average 13 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game, shooting percentage of 43.2%, and three-point shooting percentage of 34%

This Auburn star who was once highly anticipated has the modern inside qualities of three-point shooting and maneuvering rim protection, but has not yet fully realized his potential in the Rockets. Its NBA-level perimeter stability has never met expectations, and its difficult shooting ability in college has not been transformed into a professional field advantage. Although he was able to make positive contributions, his performance obviously did not meet the level that Tanhua Show should have.

10th pick: Andrew Nemhard

Actual pick: 31

Career income: $6.595,715

Career data: Average of 9.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.6 assists, shooting percentage of 46.4%, three-point shooting percentage of 33.5%

Coach Rick Carlisle was aware of his eyes that year. Zhu, he said in 2022 when talking about Nemhard: "I have been saying that when the HoopsHype website reorders the 2022 draft, Nemhard can enter the top 15. In my opinion, he even thinks he can enter the top 10, and he is really a special player." The second round double-seater played far beyond his draft pick with a tough defensive attitude and ball-free switching ability at the Pacers. If the stability of three points can be improved, the ranking is expected to continue to rise in the next reorder. During this year's playoffs, Nemhard became the key surprise for the Pacers to enter the finals with his ball offense and defensive resilience.

11th pick: Jaden Ivey

Actual pick: No. 5

Career revenue: $22.843,920

Career data: Average of 16.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists, shooting percentage of 42.9%, and 35.2% from three-point shooting percentage if it weren't for injuries this season, the Purdue guard was very likely to be at a higher ranking. This season he has shown comprehensive evolution, averaged 18 points efficiently with a three-point shooting rate of nearly 41%, while also making achievements in rebounds and assists as an off-ball player. Unfortunately, the 30-game highlight sample is not enough to support us to further advance its ranking.

12th pick: Walker Kessler

Actual pick: No. 22

Career revenue: $8.493,480

Career data: Average of 9.4 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists, shooting percentage of 68%

The former No. 22 pick jumped to the end of the lottery with his top block and rebounding ability. He also has an excellent finishing touch and amazing wingspan under the basket. If you join a competitive team in the future, your development trajectory will be more worthy of attention.

13th pick: Shetton Sharp

Actual pick: 7th

Career revenue: $18.94920

Career data: Average 14.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, shooting percentage of 44.9%, and three-point shooting percentage of 33%

This scoring guard has excellent ball-holding offensive ability and explosive power under the basket, but still has room for improvement in efficiency. Whether the shooting choices can be optimized in the future will determine the height of his career.

14th overall: Mark Williams

Actual ranking: 15

Career income: $11.724480

Career data: Average of 12.3 points, 8.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting percentage of 62.2%

This center who almost joined the Lakers has achieved his best career performance this season, averaging 15.3 points, 10.5 rebounds per game, and shooting percentage of 60.4%. He has an amazing wingspan, an excellent basket end and a precise judgment on the timing of the block, but health issues are always the constraints, which is why he failed to put on the purple gold robe.

15th pick: Tari Ethan

Actual pick: 17

Career income: $10.684,474

Career data: Average of 10.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, shooting percentage of 46.6%

Ethan basically maintained his original pick in this draft reorder. As the Rockets' stable fourth-position space player, he always maintains abundant energy on both offense and defense.

16th pick: Jeremy Sohan

Actual pick: 9

Career income: $15.95520

Career data: Average of 11.4 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists, shooting percentage of 46.8%

This unique forward guard swinger is limited by the stagnation of offensive development and currently only shows the value of role players. If stable offensive means can be developed, he will become a powerful tool for both offense and defense.

17th pick: Scotty Pippen Jr. Actual pick: undrafted career income: $2.087,519

Career data: Average of 9.9 points, 3.3 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game, shooting percentage of 48%

The point guard has grown into a qualified starter or a high-quality substitute this season with shooting, organization and defense. The core question is: How high is the upper limit for him who is about to turn 25? If the improvement this season can be continued, it may be able to lock in a stable starting position.

18th overall pick: Nikola Jovic

Actual pick: 27

Career income: $7.056,120

Career data: Average of 8.7 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game, shooting percentage of 45%, and three-point shooting percentage of 37%

Jovic is very young in this rookie, and is only 21 years old. Considering that he has finished his third season in the NBA, it is really unbelievable. Jovic's three-point shooting percentage has reached 38.3% in the past two seasons, and has grown both on the offense and defense. He is 2.08 meters tall but has the agile technology of defenders, and has the ability to play misaligned backs. He is expected to grow into a multi-faceted scorer in the future..

19th pick: Olympiad Abakki

Actual pick: 14

Career revenue: $12.342,840

Career data: Average 7.9 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, shooting percentage of 45%, and three-point shooting percentage of 35.3%

The shooting guard, who has played for the second team in his career, is currently performing lower than lottery pick expectations. However, Abakkey did show signs of progress this season, with a career high averaging points, and a three-point shooting percentage also increased to a career high of 39.9%, and is still expected to realize his potential in the draft.

20th pick: Keon Ellis

Actual pick: undrafted

Career income: US$2.854,123

Career data: 8.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game, shooting percentage of 48.9%, three-point shooting percentage of 43.3%

Coming from the undraft to the top 20 pick in the rearrangement, Keon Ellis just played his best season in his career, averaging 8.3 points, 1.5 steals per game and maintaining a 43.3% three-point shooting percentage. He has good speed on both ends of the offense and defense and is a very outstanding outside shooter. Even though he is 25 years old, this sharpshooter with excellent offense and defense has proved that he is a high-quality lineup puzzle and has been a huge success for the draft.

21st pick: Max Christie

Actual pick: 35

Career revenue: $10.38502

Career data: Average 6.2 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, shooting percentage of 42.6%, and three-point shooting percentage of 37%

Max Christie, who is only 22 years old, has shown the potential to be a high-quality off-ball shooter, and his outside firepower can create space for his teammates. After being traded to the Mavericks in the middle of the season, he scored his best performance in his career.

22nd pick: Julian Champany

Actual pick: Lost

Career income: US$6 million

Career data: Average of 9.9 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists, shooting percentage of 41.5%, three-point shooting percentage of 37.1%

This 3D forward is one of the players with the largest increase in the reorder of this draft. His game adheres to the concept of "less is more", and can always make the right choice, and becomes the perfect puzzle for modern basketball with steady outside shooting.

23rd pick: Payton Watson

Actual pick: 30

Career revenue: $6.911,040

Career data: Average of 6.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game, shooting percentage of 47.2%, and three-point shooting percentage of 32.8%

This energetic shooting guard has ushered in a breakthrough this season. While improving the outside shooting efficiency, it has both empty-cut scoring ability and stable defense. If he can continue to improve, he will become an important puzzle for the Nuggets to return to the finals.

24th pick: Jerryn Williams

Actual pick: 34

Career income: US$6.225,687

Career data: Average of 5.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.9 assists, shooting percentage of 43%, three-point shooting percentage of 39%

This second-round forward successfully gained a foothold in the league with his 39% three-point shooting percentage, high-quality cover and solid basket ending. His space-based style perfectly meets the needs of modern basketball.

25th pick: Jabarri Walker, Actual pick: No. 57

Career revenue: $4,757,344

Career data: Average of 6.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 0.8 assists, shooting percentage of 46.5%, and 31.8% from three-point shooting percentage, just played in the best season of career shooting performance, is another high-quality 3D forward among the 2022 rookies. His three-point shooting percentage this season is close to 39%. This University of Colorado player who almost lost the election back then has now become a regular rotation member in the league and is a model of counterattack.

26th pick: Jack Laravia

Actual pick: 19

Career income: $9.6 million,240

Career data: Average of 6.9 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game, shooting percentage of 42.9%, and 37.1% of three-point shooting percentage of 37.1%

Laravia did not have much expectations when she first entered the NBA. This tall guard who could score, grab rebounds and organize in college, often played in the power forward position in the Grizzlies due to their speed disadvantages. After joining the King, Laravia is expected to usher in new development opportunities.

27th pick: Vince Williams Jr. Actual pick: No. 47

Career income: $4.353,001

Career data: Average 7.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, shooting percentage of 42.3%, and three-point shooting percentage of 32.8%

Career data: Average of 8.1 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting percentage of 42.5%, and three-point shooting percentage of 38.1%

Actual pick: No. 43

Career revenue: $957,763

Career data: Average of 4.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, 0.6 assists, and shooting percentage of 58.1%
