What time does the NBA Draft start?

Published Jun. 23, 2016 9:07 a.m. ET

Although it seems that the first two picks in the NBA Draft are near-locks - with LSU's Ben Simmons going to Philadelphia and Duke's Brandon Ingram to the Lakers - the rest of the Draft is sure to be full of surprises, with a few teams in the top half reportedly looking to trade their picks. So what time should you tune in?

The 2016 NBA Draft will begin at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN, with pre-Draft coverage beginning at 7:00. You can stream the Draft using the Watch ESPN app.
