As the deadline for early entrants to enter their name in the 2022 NBA Draft has come and gone, the field of available players has now taken shape with big names from the Big 12 to international leagues. Although new NIL legislation and the transfer portal led some prospects back to school for another year, many still opted to test the professional waters.

While some of these athletes retained their college eligibility and will be given the option to return to school for another season before the June deadline, others have foregone that with their eyes set on playing in the NBA.

The Big 12 brings multiple highly touted prospects into the 2022 NBA Draft, including Kansas star Ochai Agbaji, along with Baylor freshmen Kendall Brown and Jeremy Sochan.

Baylor leads the way in the Big 12 with five early entrants, followed by Kansas with four. They are followed by Texas with three and Iowa State with two. Kansas State, Oklahoma State and TCU and Texas Tech produced one prospect each.

While it remains to be seen how many withdraw or how many go in the first round, the conference stands out as one of the most talented from the last season thanks to these players who now look to show off their skills at the next level.
