The draft is over and NBA summer league is about to kick off. Before it does I want to share a new idea I had. Many people, including myself, do big boards before the draft but are those relatively dumb?
Talent and potential matter a lot but so does playing time, drafting team, and the culture you are added into.
For these reasons I have come up with the idea of weighing all of these things together and creating one final big board.
For me this is big board 5.0 but this is my one and only post-draft big board. For these reasons I want this to be the big board that people look and judge me on in a couple of years (unless it is bad, then just ignore it).
My rankings didn’t totally change from big board 4.0 but if a player was drafted into a bad situation it may hurt his ranking a little and the opposite for being drafted into good positions.
This will be my last piece of the 2022 NBA Draft Cycle to check out the rest of my 2022 draft stuff click the link below.
So without further to do here is my final big board of the year. See you for the loaded 2023 NBA Draft.
