The 2026 NBA draft order has been set with the Washington Wizards, Indiana Pacers, and Brooklyn Nets holding the top three lottery positions with 14% odds each at securing the No. 1 overall pick. The draft lottery, scheduled for May 10, will determine the final order of the top 14 selections as 14 teams begin their offseason push.

The 2026 class is being touted as historically deep, with teams like the Dallas Mavericks hoping to replicate last year's lottery miracle when they jumped from 11th odds to the No. 1 pick. The Memphis Grizzlies hold the fourth spot with 11.5% odds, followed by the Sacramento Kings at the same percentage. Several teams are positioned to make franchise-altering selections.

Beyond the lottery, the draft order continues through both rounds with complex trade scenarios affecting multiple teams' selections. The Chicago Bulls appear multiple times across different rounds due to various trades, while the San Antonio Spurs control several picks through their own and acquired selections. With the playoffs underway, these lottery teams now shift focus to rebuilding through what promises to be a transformative draft class.
