NBA sets June 25-26, 2025, for draft event at Barclays Center

The NBA has announced that it will once again hold its draft over the course of two nights, with the 2025 event scheduled for June 25-26.

This marks the second year in a row that the league has opted for this format, and both nights will take place at the Barclays Center, the home of the Brooklyn Nets.

Coverage for the event will start at 8 p.m. Eastern on both nights and will be available across various ESPN platforms, with the first night being broadcast on ABC.

Similar to the previous year’s draft, the first round will have a time limit of five minutes per selection, while the second round will feature a slightly shorter time limit of four minutes between picks.

Duke freshman Cooper Flagg is anticipated to be a leading candidate for the top overall pick if he decides to declare for the draft.
