NEW YORK — The National Basketball Association (NBA) announced today that the NBA Draft 2025 presented by State Farm will take place on Wednesday, June 25 and Thursday, June 26 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., home of the Brooklyn Nets. Coverage on both nights will begin at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN platforms.

The 2025 NBA Draft is scheduled for June 25-26 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, the league announced Tuesday.

The NBA is using the two-night draft format again this year. The league announced Tuesday that the 2025 event will take place on June 25 and 26.

The 2027 first-round pick was the only one Dallas had to offer because NBA rules prohibit trading first-round picks in successive years, and the Mavericks, at the time, owed the Knicks a first-rounder in 2024 or 2025 from the Kristaps Porzingis deal ( it officially became the ‘24 pick in April) and Brooklyn one in 2029 from the Irving deal.

The Toronto Raptors seem to be in a mess right now. After parting ways with OG Anunoby and Pascal Siakam in separate deals earlier this season, the franchise has officially transitioned into a new era built around Scottie Barnes and RJ Barrett.
