2023 NBA draft guide - Date, time, how to watch, top prospects - ESPN
The 2023 NBA draft will bring a new class of young talent to the league.
French sensation Victor Wembanyama leads the pack, as the hailed generational prospect is assured to be the first overall selection by the San Antonio Spurs.
But beyond the first pick, a handful of lottery teams have the opportunity to add a difference-making prospect, while other teams will look to strike gold on a rookie with untapped potential.
Alabama's Brandon Miller is projected by our NBA draft experts Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo to go No. 2 to the Charlotte Hornets. But G League Ignite guard Scoot Henderson is right behind Miller and the decision could come down to the wire.
Other prospects projected to be high lottery picks include Villanova's Cam Whitmore and twins Amen and Ausar Thompson of Overtime Elite.
All the action is set to go down at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, on Thursday at 8 p.m. ET. Watch on ABC, ESPN and the ESPN App.
