Will Kai Sotto be drafted in the upcoming 2022 NBA Draft?
Sports Illustrated thinks so.
In its mock draft, Sports Illustrated sees the 7-foot-3 Pinoy cager being picked 49th overall by the Sacramento Kings.
According to Sports Illustrated's Brett Siegel, Sotto is mostly likely to be drafted by Sacramento in the second round.
Sotto, who played for a season with the Adelaide 36ers in Australia's National Basketball League, is currently in the US to work out with several NBA teams in anticipation of the draft this coming June 23.
He is looking to become the first full-blooded Filipino to be drafted into the NBA.
