For the first time in its current format, the NBA Draft will be a two-day event. The first round of the 2024 NBA Draft begins Wednesday night in Brooklyn at the Barclays Center, with the Atlanta Hawks currently holding the No. 1 overall pick.
So, how did we get here? The Hawks won the NBA Draft lottery last month after having just 3% odds of claiming the top pick. There is no slam dunk or current consensus No. 1 selection, so despite making a historic jump to the top of one of the most interesting draft cycles of the 21st century, it remains unclear what the Hawks will do.
The Hawks can draft the top-ranked player on CBS Sports’ Big Board in French big man Alex Sarr. Atlanta could use the pick to select UConn big man Donovan Clingan or French forward Zaccharie Risacher. They could also trade the pick to accumulate more assets to get their guy at a later pick.
One of the biggest storylines heading into the two-day event is where will USC guard Bronny James get picked? The oldest son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has been linked to the Southern California franchise. The father-son duo could be the first to play together on the same team if the Lakers select Bronny at No. 17 or No. 55 overall in the second round.
Ahead of the big night, here’s a look at the viewing information and full draft order for the 2024 NBA Draft.
