NBA Draft 2019 takes place on Thursday, June 20, and here is how fans can enjoy the drama-filled event from start to finish.
The NBA Draft is one of the best events on the calendar. Fans have already seen two massive trades in the days leading up to the draft. They can expect more maneuvering today.
The draft is also a time of hope for every team. Each franchise had their record reset to zero and zero. They are dreaming of selecting that game-changing talent in the draft or signing that All-Star in free agency. Some only want to be that surprise team that everyone is talking about next year. It is all possible on draft night.
The Dallas Mavericks traded away their first round pick in last year’s Luka Doncic deal with the Hawks. The Mavs are still selecting, though.
Here is all pertinent information fans need to know to be able to enjoy the 2019 NBA Draft.

The draft kicks off at 7 p.m. ET or 6 p.m. local time in Dallas. This year’s event is being held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.

Fans can stream the entire 2019 NBA Draft online on Watch ESPN or the ESPN App. They also have coverage on ESPN Radio if that is your preferred method.
TV info

Where the Mavs pick

Final thoughts
Dallas Mavericks fans will not want to miss the 2019 NBA Draft. The Mavs may not be selecting high, but plenty of league-wide drama will unfold.
The Pelicans have the top pick. They are set to select Zion Williamson. Many experts view him as an immediate franchise-altering talent. That will just be the first of many moves on draft night.
