How to Watch the 2024 NBA Draft: Is It Streaming?
The 2024-25 NBA season will be underway sooner rather than later, but before fans can return to their court-side seats, the official Draft must commence — it will begin in New York on Wednesday.
Traditionally, the NBA Draft takes place on the final Thursday in June. However, this year, it will be held across two days for the first time in NBA history on Wednesday and Thursday.
The selections will take place over two rounds, consisting of 58 selections in total. The Atlanta Hawks secured the No. 1 overall pick in NBA Draft Lottery just a few weeks ago.
The first round will take place at Barclays Center located in Brooklyn on June 26th. The second round will be the following day, June 27th, at ESPN’s Seaport District Studios in New York.
But where, when and how can you watch the NBA Draft? We’ve got everything you need to know below.
