It begins at 7:00 p.m. Eastern and will be on ESPN. The 76ers have acquired the first-overall pick in a blockbuster deal with the Celtics and are expected to take Washington guard Markelle Fultz. Boston dropped back to the third pick, with the Lakers selecting between Philadelphia and the Celtics. The Suns and Kings round out the top five.
All teams in the first five picks have been linked in trade rumors for Knicks star Kristaps Porzingis, who is surprisingly on the block. Other players in rumors include Pacers star Paul George and Bulls star Jimmy Butler. UCLA’s Lonzo Ball, Kansas’ Josh Jackson, Florida State’s Jonathan Issac, Duke’s Jayson Tatum, Kentucky’s De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk, and NC State’s Dennis Smith are expected to go towards the beginning of the first round.
