How does the NBA Draft work?
In advance of the draft lottery broadcast, an actual lottery takes place with a representative from the accounting firm Ernst & Young overseeing the entire process. The results of that drawing are then sealed in an envelope for NBA deputy commissioner and chief operating officer Mark Tatum to reveal in descending order to a panel of 14 anxious team representatives.
The No. 1 pick in the draft is awarded to the team that draws the winning four-number combination from the lottery machine. There are 14 ping-pong balls numbered one through 14, with each number representing a different lottery team. In total, there are 1,001 possible four-number combinations, but only one winning combination.
Once a winner is selected, the drawing process is repeated to determine picks 2-4. The rest of the draft is done in order of win percentage.
How many rounds does the NBA Draft have?
Since 1989, the NBA Draft has consisted of two rounds.
In the ’60s, the drafts ran until teams had run out of prospects, leading to drafts lasting up to 21 rounds. In 1974, 10 rounds were more common and in 1985 it was shortened to seven rounds. The NBPA and NBA agreed to limit the draft to two rounds with undrafted players given the chance to try out for any team.
