Seven teams pick twice this year in the first round (T-Wolves, Wizards, Bobcats, Rockets, and Bulls). The Cavs and Jazz pick twice within the lottery (picks 1-13). This could be a good year for the Cavs to rebound from LeBron’s departure.
There are several pre-draft trade rumors including the Cavaliers trying to move up to #2 by trading their #4 pick. Possible Lakers trades for Kevin Love and/or Dwight Howard. Golden State could be shopping Monta Ellis after saying he will be a Warrior once they hired Mark Jackson as their new head coach. Tony Parker’s name has been popping up in trade rumors as well.
The 2011 NBA Draft beings at 7:00 p.m. EST. The draft will be held in Newark, New Jersey.
