Andy Katz of the B1G Network released his sleeper picks for the 2022 NBA Draft on Thursday. He chose 6 former B1G standouts that could make some noise in their rookie year.

These are players that Katz believes won’t go in the the lottery, but could be taken in the later rounds or even late 1st round. There is quite a bit of talent on this list. You can watch the 2022 NBA Draft and see if Katz’s picks come true on June 23rd on ESPN. The event will be held in the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York for the 9th year in a row.

Here are his sleeper picks:

  • No. 2: E.J. Liddell, Ohio State
  • No. 3: Moussa Diabate, Michigan
  • No. 4: Kofi Cockburn, Illinois
  • No. 5: Caleb Houstan, Michigan
