As the 2024-25 NBA season comes to a close, it’s time for all 30 teams to begin preparations for next season — and the first order of business is the NBA Draft.
This year’s class is headlined by Duke phenom Cooper Flagg, who’s expected to go No. 1 overall, but there are plenty of other intriguing prospects. From two Rutgers standouts, Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey, to other players who stood out on 2025 NCAA Tournament squads, like Derik Queen and Jase Richardson, some of the best collegiate and international players will soon begin their NBA careers.
Owning the top selection in this year’s draft, following some luck at the draft lottery, is the Dallas Mavericks. While they own the right to select whoever they’d like (most likely being Flagg), there are also a few squads that have multiple first-round picks or have acquired a vast collection of total picks for the 2025 draft.
