See where Johnny Davis lands in CBS latest 2022 NBA Mock Draft

After being named a consensus first-team All-American, Big Ten Player of the Year, and the Lute Olson National Player of the Year, sophomore guard Johnny Davis decided it was time to take his talents to the NBA.

CBS Sports college basketball columnist Garry Parrish’s most recent 2022 mock draft had the La Crosse (Wis.) native being selected 8th overall to the New Orleans Pelicans.

The former La Crosse Central standout led the Badgers in scoring and rebounding, finishing his sophomore season averaging 19.7 points and 8.2 rebounds per game.

A projected lottery pick in the upcoming NBA Draft, Davis is set to become the first Badger drafted since Frank Kaminsky (9th overall) and Sam Dekker (18th overall) were selected in the 2015 NBA Draft.
