Not all the teams in the NBA get the opportunity for playoff actions. Some don’t have the best seasons and have to look to get better next year. And the NBA does its part in helping these teams. Giving these teams higher odds in the draft, the league gives the weaker teams a shot at acquiring the hot young talent. And with the odds coming in for the 2022 draft, NBA Twitter went wild.

While the journey to the NBA finals has just begun, some teams were sent to rest much sooner. Teams like the Orlando Magic, Houston Rockets, and Sacramento Kings became lottery teams and got the best odds in the upcoming draft. With some serious talent on offer, the odds got really spicy. The Magic came in with all the luck, as they are projected to have the first overall pick.

And NBA fans couldn’t keep it to themselves as they reacted to the draft odds.

All the top players have superstar potential and teams will face a tough choice. Apart from the projected top three picks, talents such as Victor Wembanyama, Scott Henderson, and Shaedon Sharpe are also spicy prospects. Hence, predicting a fixed top 4 is a tough choice.
