The 2022 NBA Draft is just over a month away, with draft night set to take place in the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on June 23. As the NBA Draft continues to approach, CBS Sports has released an updated mock draft.

Plenty of familiar faces sit at the top of the NBA mock draft, with Duke’s Paolo Banchero being selected quickly, even after being hilariously mistaken for Patrick Mahomes over the weekend. Auburn’s Jabari Smith and Gonzaga’s Chet Holmgren also check in early on. But there is also a surprise at the top, with a new face checking in at No. 3 overall.

Players have up until June 13 at 5 p.m. ET to withdraw their names from the NBA Draft, which could create additional shakeups in mocks up until draft night. Ahead of the NBA Draft, a group of 44 players received invites to the NBA G League 2022 Elite Camp, providing them another opportunity to improve their stocks.

Here is a look at the latest 2022 NBA mock draft, from CBS Sports.
