Pippen Ain’t Easy’s 2022 NBA Mock Draft: Final two-round forecast
Pippen Ain’t Easy’s 2022 NBA Mock Draft: Picks 46-60
The Sacramento Kings will have the opportunity to cash out on the 49th overall pick from Chicago here. The Bulls lost this pick when they traded it away in 2019 to acquire Tomas Satoransky from the Washington Wizards. While the Bulls don’t have a pick here in this NBA mock draft, at least a few of these picks will certainly be on the move on draft day.
The 54th and 55th picks from this year’s draft have also been forfeited as punishment for Milwaukee and Miami violating the league’s tampering rules. That means there will only be 58 rookies in this year’s draft class, not the usual 60.
