where to watch live and the order of choices

O 2023 NBA draft will be this Thursday, June 22, from 9 pm (Brasília time). With the lottery already defined, having the san antonio spurs with the first choice, the main hiring name is French Victor Wembanyama.

The Texas franchise, five times champion of the basketball league, must hire the 19-year-old center. Wembanyama is considered by many to be one of the biggest prospects since LeBron James.

With one of the worst campaigns of the 2022/23 regular season, the Spurs took advantage of the NBA Draft lottery, and were in the best position to make the ‘perfect pick’ and reinforce the squad with the possible arrival of one of the biggest promises of recent basketball history. Wembanyama is an offensive player who combines versatility in attack, in addition to good defensive positioning. At just 19 years old, he is considered the ‘new Lebron James’ of the generation.

At 2.25m, the boy manages to combine his strength with great technical ability. Therefore, the expectation is that the 2023/24 season will be different for the Spurs, who hope to succeed with the French promise, who will be able to shine in a place where Tony Parker immortalized his name in world basketball.

Defending NBA champion, the denver nuggets will have the 37th and 40th picks in the Draft, having no time in the first round. The Colorado franchise won the league title for the first time in history after beating the miami heat 4-1 in the Finals series.
