2023 NBA draft
The 2023 NBA draft, the 77th edition of the National Basketball Association's annual draft, was held on June 22, 2023, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The draft consisted of 58 picks instead of the typical 60 due to the loss of a second-round pick for both the Chicago Bulls and the Philadelphia 76ers for violating the NBA's tampering rules during free agency. This was the second straight season in which the NBA draft had only 58 picks instead of the typical 60 due to tampering violations. The first overall selection was made by the San Antonio Spurs, who selected the 7'4" French center Victor Wembanyama.
