The NBA Draft 2026 will be held June 23 and 24 at Barclays Center, the league announced today. Barclays Center in Brooklyn will serve as home of the event and coverage will begin at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN platforms on both nights.

The NBA Draft will begin next Tuesday and the Wolverines are looking to do something for the second time ever.

The latest NBA mock draft from ESPN’s Jeremy Woo was released following the NBA scouting combine. The draft is scheduled for June 23rd and 24th. The usual suspects run the lottery picks and there wasn’t too much movement after seeing on-court workouts. Still, teams could take a second look at certain players and change the draft order.

The plan always was for Chris Cenac Jr. to compete for a championship in his one season at Houston and be a one-and-done player taken at the top of the 2026 NBA Draft. Recruiting services had the same kind of thinking as Cenac.
