NBA Draft

The NBA Draft is a day (or, as of this year, two days) when dreams and fortunes are made real, when penniless college athletes are transformed into instant millionaires and struggling franchises desperately seek that player who will turn their fortunes around. The Draft itself is filled with tension as families wait, clutching one another’s hands, wondering when and by whom their sons will be picked. The announcement of each draft pick is followed by an explosion of excitement and pride as the player walks to the stage to shake hands and accept his new team jersey. In the background, GMs, coaches, and scouts work the phones all day, wheeling and dealing up until the last possible moment to get their team a competitive advantage. And the best part of all of this? You can buy NBA Draft tickets from TicketX and be there in person to witness all the drama at Barclays Center in New York!

2024 NBA Draft - Premium Seating Options

Here are premium seating options (called Official Experience Packages) available for the 2024 NBA Draft:

• Hall of Fame: This package gets you a behind-the-scenes tour of NBA headquarters as well as dinner at a high-top table on the floor at the Draft. You will also be asked up onto the stage for a group photo with the newly drafted Class of ‘24! This is about as close as you can get to being drafted yourself (without the talent…).

• Legend: This package also provides a behind-the-scenes tour of NBA headquarters along with front-row seats right on the player’s path to the stage! You will also be invited up on stage for a group photo with the new draftees (prepare not to feel tall…).

Where is the 2024 NBA Draft taking place?

The 2024 NBA Draft is set to be held at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, home of the NBA’s Brooklyn Nets. The venue is easily accessible from Manhattan and all other boroughs of New York City via train, subway, or taxi.

How does the NBA Draft work?

Each team gets one pick per round in the NBA Draft (there are only two rounds, far fewer than in other professional sports). Draft order for the first 4 picks is determined via lottery: all teams that missed the 2024 NBA Playoffs are entered, with teams with the lowest 2023-2024 records given better odds. The rest of the teams are sequenced based on their 2023-2024 regular season records.

Note: Teams frequently trade current or future draft picks, so some teams may have multiple picks in a round or no picks at all.

2024 NBA Draft Picks - Top Prospects

Prior to each NBA Draft, there is always heavy speculation as to which players will be selected first, second, and so on (and by which team). Many of the best NBA players of all time (Magic Johnson, LeBron James, Shaquille O’Neal, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Tim Duncan…) have been number-one picks, though some of the game’s biggest superstars have been selected later (such as Michael Jordan, who was picked third, or Kobe Bryant, who was picked 13th!). The pool of prospects is much larger nowadays than it used to be, as NBA teams can draft players not only from American colleges but from high schools and minor pro leagues. An even more significant factor has been the large number of top players drafted directly into the NBA from European professional teams, as European players like Luka Doncic (Slovenia), Nikola Jokic (Serbia), and Victor Wembanyama (France).

According to ESPN, the top 10 draft prospects for the 2024 NBA Draft are as follows:

1. Zaccharie Risacher (France)

2. Alex Sarr (France)

3. Donovan Clignan (UConn Huskies)

4. Reed Sheppard (Kentucky Wildcats)

5. Matas Buzelis (G League Ignite)

6. Stephon Castle (UConn Huskies)

7. Dalton Knecht (Tennessee Volunteers)

8. Rob Dillingham (Kentucky Wildcats)

9. Tidjane Salaun (France)

10. Nikola Topic (Serbia)

Keep in mind that these are just prospects. The player who each team selects is completely up to that team, so the players and the order of selection could be radically different on the day. No one knows what will happen in the NBA Draft right up until the final moment—that’s why it’s such an exciting event (and why you should buy your NBA Draft tickets from TicketX right now).

What about tickets to the 2024 WNBA Draft?

The 2024 WNBA Draft took place on April 15, 2024, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (Brooklyn, New York), generating unprecedented interest due to the draft eligibility of college superstar Caitlin Clark. Clark was selected first overall by the Indiana Fever, followed by the glamorous Cameron Brink, who was chosen second by the Los Angeles Sparks. Both draftees began playing almost immediately, as the WNBA season runs from May to October. If you want to attend the 2025 WNBA Draft next season, come back to TicketX in early 2025, and we will have the 2025 WNBA Draft tickets that you need at the prices you want!
