The 2020 NBA Draft takes place this week after a lengthy delay and it’s time to get our first look at where some of the top prospects in the league will be suiting up for the next step of their careers.
LaMelo Ball is the favorite to be the first pick in the draft, though no one seems to know which team will call his name.
Ahead of the draft, the oddsmakers released their thoughts on how things will play out.
“Along with the traditional draft props, there are odds on which members of the Ball family will be seen, who the No. 1 pick will hug first, how many cats or dogs will be shown and much more,” the release said.
“As far as trades, there is a 93.8% chance a deal will be made during the first 10 picks, according to the odds. An over/under of 6.5 trades has been set as the Draft Day total.”
