NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA is using the two-night draft format again this year, announcing Tuesday that the 2025 event will take place on June 25-26.

It's the second consecutive year of the two-night process. Both nights will be at the Barclays Center, home of the Brooklyn Nets.

Coverage both nights will begin at 8 p.m. Eastern across ESPN platforms, with the first night set to air on ABC. As was the case for last year's draft, there will be a five-minute time limit between picks in the first round. For the second round, there will be a four-minute time limit between picks.

Duke freshman Cooper Flagg is widely expected to be a frontrunner for the No. 1 overall pick should he elect to enter the draft.
