The draft is tonight, and NBA fans all over the world are wondering who the No.1 pick this this season will be. Could it be Jabari Smith, scoring machine out of Auburn? Or how about 7-footer Chet Holmgren, with both a wingspan and wing-playing prowess? Will the Knicks try and trade up? There are a lot of uncertainties and excitement surrounding this year’s draft, but all questions will be answered tonight in the Barclays Center at 8pm.

For many fans, there may be the question: where can I watch the draft?

The first round of the 2022 NBA draft can be viewed on both ABC and ESPN, but the second round will be exclusively on ESPN.
