NBA Draft 2017 live stream: Watch online
By John Buhler
The 2017 NBA Draft will begin on Thursday, June 22 at 7:00 p.m. ET. Here is how to watch the television event online via live streaming.
It’s the moment many bad NBA teams have been waiting for. The 2017 NBA Draft will be on Thursday, June 22. It will begin at 7:00 p.m. ET at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. ESPN will have the national broadcast. The available live streams can be found on WatchESPN and FuboTV.
This draft features several highly touted one-and-done 19-year-olds that could transform a few franchises. The Philadelphia 76ers have already orchestrated a trade with the Boston Celtics to move up from No. 3 to No. 1. Philadelphia is largely expected to draft the consensus best player in former Washington Huskies point guard Markelle Fultz at No. 1.
Boston has vetted the top-five and doesn’t see any real separating factors in that quintet. Feeling that way has allowed Boston to accept Philadelphia’s trade offer to move back to No. 3 to get the player they want. One would have to believe that the Celtics are targeting at No. 3 either former Kansas Jayhawks forward Josh Jackson or former Duke Blue Devils forward Jayson Tatum.
Another team to keep an eye on is the Sacramento Kings. Sacramento has two picks in the top-10 at No. 5 and No. 10. The Kings could be in line to move up and down the draft board. Another team of interest would have to be the Portland Trail Blazers, who have three first-round picks out side of the top-14 lottery part of the draft. Might Portland move up on Thursday night?
