With the 2022 NBA Draft now around the corner, Paolo Banchero says he feels he is the best prospect in the draft class.
“I feel like I am the best player in the draft and I feel like I showed that throughout the year,” he said Friday over Zoom. “I feel like I showed everything with my skill sets and my intangibles.”
Banchero, 17.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game last season with the Blue Devils, is expected to be among the top three picks in the draft along with Jabari Smith and Chet Holmgren.
Most of the specialized sites believe Banchero will be selected at No. 3 by the Houston Rockets.
Paolo seems excited about the chance to play alongside talents such as Jalen Green and Kevin Porter Jr.
“Those are two extremely skilled, extremely talented players,” Banchero said. “Both guys I’ve known for a while. I feel like playing with them would be fun. Both are unselfish guys. Guys who want to win.”
“I’ll be blessed to hear my name called by any of the top three teams”.
