The Thunder just won the NBA championship, but there is no time for teams to rest. The NBA Draft is here.
Just like last year's event, the 2025 draft will be held across two days at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. First-round picks will be made on Thursday, June 26, and the draft will conclude with the second round on Friday, June 27.
There is no debate about the No. 1 pick at this year's draft, as the Mavericks are expected to select Duke University star Cooper Flagg. The rest of the lottery is up in the air, though, so a shocking pick or trade could throw the draft board into chaos.
Here is everything you need to know about the 2025 NBA Draft, including how to watch the annual event in Australia.
