2022 NBA Draft Coverage: Shaedon Sharpe

Shaedon Sharpe is probably the most complicated player to evaluate in this year’s draft, but there is a lot to like in the little bit we’ve seen of him. Sharpe was the number 1 overall men’s basketball prospect coming out of high school. He graduated a year early and committed to the University of Kentucky, but took a redshirt freshman year and didn’t play a single minute for the Wildcats. He is listed as a Shooting Guard, however, he would slot in really well at either wing position in a modern NBA offense. Sharpe is projected to be drafted in the top 5 on most boards right now, which means the Jazz’s only chance at taking him would be in a trade, most likely with the Sacramento Kings who have the 4th pick.
