4. Where Does Shaedon Sharpe End Up?
One of the more intriguing prospects in this year’s draft class is Shaedon Sharpe. The opinions on him are all over the place, which is understandable. No one knows what to make of him coming into the 2022 NBA Draft.
Sharpe came into his own as an upperclassman in high school, but there are still plenty of questions surrounding him. He didn’t play last season at Kentucky, deciding to focus on preparation for the draft.
So the last time we saw Sharpe on the court was over a year ago in high school, where he wasn’t exposed to the biggest of stages. Not playing a single minute with the Wildcats, he is set to make a massive jump.
Extremely athletic with the tools to become a lockdown defender, Sharpe possesses an intriguing skill set. But, just how intrigued teams will be, is a fair question to ask. Will there be a franchise willing to use a top-6 pick on him given how little they truly know?

His draft range is one of the biggest in this year’s class. All it takes is for one team to fall in love with a prospect to have them hear their name called. Which team will that be? Sharpe has been mocked as high as No. 5 to the Detroit Pistons, but there is a chance that he could fall out of the top-10 and possibly the lottery as teams may be more comfortable selecting someone they have more information on.
