Sports Illustrated Jeremy Woo recently hinted in his latest 2022 NBA mock draft at the possibility the Oklahoma City Thunder wants to package its 12th pick and other picks to potentially move up in the draft.
“There’s some thought around the league that the Thunder may try and combine this selection with some of their other draft picks in order to try and move up to get a second top 10 selection.”
This aligns with what Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer reported last week, where he also said the same thing that he’s heard that the Thunder might not want to trade up from 12th overall to get two top-11 picks this draft.
As a precursor, it’s that time of the year where draft rumors and reports are at an all-time high, but Woo is one of the legit ones in terms of draft content, so what he says holds some merit. Thunder fans will just have to wait until June 23 for the 2022 NBA draft to see if the team makes any moves.
