The wait it finally over. After weeks of speculation and workouts, the 2018 NBA Draft is finally upon us. The Los Angeles Lakers worked out more than 100 players ahead of the draft, giving them an up-close look at a wide range of options.
The Lakers recently gave themselves another asset as they acquired the 39th overall pick from the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. Whether that will be used in an attempt to move up in the draft, as part of a larger trade for a big star, or they just wanted to draft an extra prospect is anyone’s guess.
Regardless, the Lakers will be one of the most-watched teams of the day.
The draft itself will air live on ESPN, beginning at 4 p.m. PT. It will also be streaming on ESPN+ and available ESPN Radio, with additional analysis being provided on ESPN2.
