2026 NBA Draft Lottery Approaches

The 2026 NBA Draft Lottery takes place Sunday, May 10, with Washington, Indiana and Brooklyn each holding 14% odds for the No. 1 pick in a loaded draft.

The NBA Draft Lottery is set for 3 p.m. ET Sunday at Chicago's McCormick Place, airing on ABC before Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Washington Wizards, Indiana Pacers and Brooklyn Nets each have the highest odds (14%) to land the No. 1 pick.

This lottery may be the last in its current format, as the NBA plans to implement a new system next season to reduce tanking. Teams like the Oklahoma City Thunder, who own the Clippers' pick from the Paul George trade, could also jump into the top three despite having the league's best record. iwanktv.club
