What is the NBA draft lottery?
The draft lottery determines the order of the first 14 picks in the NBA draft and features the teams who didn't qualify for the playoffs.
How does the NBA draft lottery work?
Teams are assigned four-number combinations ahead of the drawing and those with worse records hold more combinations.
Fourteen ping-pong balls numbered 1 to 14 are placed in a lottery machine and there are four ping-pong balls removed during a given drawing.
There are four total drawings, starting with the No. 1 pick and ending with the No. 4 pick. After the first four picks have been assigned, the No. 5 to No. 14 picks are set in inverse order of the regular-season standings.
The lottery results are revealed during the broadcast, but the actual drawing isn't televised live.
Who are the top 2024 NBA Draft prospects?
The team who wins the lottery won't have an easy choice like the Spurs did last year with Victor Wembanyama. That's because this year's class doesn't boast a consensus No. 1 pick, creating some real uncertainty at the top of the draft.
A trio of international prospects -- French forward Zaccharie Risacher, French center Alex Sarr and Serbian guard Nikola Topić -- have been tabbed by draft experts as potential high picks. Risacher went No. 1 in an ESPN mock draft last month while Sarr is atop The Ringer's mock.
The top college prospects, meanwhile, include UConn guard Stephon Castle, UConn center Donovan Clingan, Kentucky guard Rob Dillingham, Tennessee forward Dalton Knecht, Kentucky guard Reed Sheppard and Colorado forward Cody Williams.
G League Ignite guards Matas Buzelis and Ron Holland could also hear their names called early. Holland is the No. 1 prospect on Bleacher Report's big board.
When is the 2024 NBA Draft?
The NBA draft is moving to a two-day format this year. The first round is scheduled for Wednesday, June 26 followed by Round 2 on Thursday, June 27.
What's the location of the 2024 NBA Draft?
Barclays Center, home of the Nets, in Brooklyn, New York, will host the first round of the draft. The second round will be held at ESPN's Seaport District Studios in New York City.
