Top 40 $DRFT Stock Market Update
The Wolf of Ball Street looks upon mainstream big boards to set updated stock prices for the Top 40 of the 2022 NBA Draft Class.
As we near closer and closer to March Radness, things are starting to percolate here in the draft world. Johnny Davis continues to set the world ablaze, Chet Holmgren is hitting combo move threes, and AJ Griffin is starting to cook. We’re talking dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria type of stuff!
That means that it’s once again time for the Wolf of Ball Street to provide a temperature check on the draft stock of the 2022 draft class with another $DRFT update.
To eliminate some personal bias from a singular big board, the monthly $DRFT updates that we provide here at No Ceilings configure a cumulative ranking based on some of the most respected big board rankings in the draft community.
Now that we’re balls deep into the process and we’re starting to get comfortable with more and more prospects, it only makes sense to expand the board to the top 40 prospects in the class. However, we need to be careful, because as comfortable as we may feel about a draft class, we have to remain cognizant of the fact that the draft is an ever evolving being and things can change up in a flash.
Remember the number one rule on Ball Street…
Nobody - and I don't care if you're Jonathan Givony or if you're Jimmy Buffet - nobody knows if a stock is going to go up, down, sideways or in circles!
