The 2023 NBA draft will have several amazing players who could potentially change the NBA's landscape. The draft will take place on June 22 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Several talented basketball players have already declared for the draft. Before the draft begins, these players will attend pre-draft camps and work out with several teams to try to improve their draft stock.

As of April 9, more than 30 players have declared for the 2023 NBA draft. Considering that we are still more than two months away from the selection process, we expect this number to drastically increase over the next few weeks.


The 2023 NBA draft will have some of the best young players from the entire world

Victor Wembanyama, a French professional basketball player, will likely be the first pick of the upcoming NBA draft. Scoot Henderson, a G League star, is expected to go second, while Brandon Miller is projected to be picked third overall.

Miller has already declared for the 2023 NBA draft and will likely end up being a lottery pick, despite his troubles off the court. Several other players who played well in the 2023 March Madness, like Markquis Nowell and Ricky Council IV, will also be available.
