In less than 24 hours, the NBA's 2025 draft will begin. This may be the most lively draft in recent years. Due to the superposition of various objective factors, each position is full of suspense except Dallas, which has the No. 1 pick. Recently, some media have summarized several highlights in the draft, which can give us a deeper understanding of this draft.

The first is where the pick will Es Bailey be selected. His pick has been stable in the top three. However, after the joint trial, Es Bailey himself and his agent team have a series of brainless operations to make his pick fluctuate. On the latest draft list, Es Bailey's pick has fallen to sixth place.

As the template is McGrady and George's Bailey. He was exposed to have severely reduced height during the joint trial. He was previously registered to be 2.08 meters tall, and his bare feet were only 2.01 meters tall. At the same time, he refused to try out for any team from then until now. This made each team hesitate about choosing him.

However, according to the latest news, Espee is still very likely to be selected in the top 4 picks, and the Nets are likely to trade upwards to get the young forward they regard as the core of the team building. In previous deals about Porzingis, the Nets won another draft pick with the Hawks 22nd pick in the first round, which brought their first round picks to 5, accounting for one-fifth of all first round picks. Their trading partner is likely to be the Hornets with the No. 4 draw. The second point is whether the Philadelphia 76ers will trade the tanhua lottery in their hands. At the beginning of the regular season last season, Philadelphia, which was determined to win the championship, experienced a series of problems such as Embiid's public opinion storm and collective injury to the core. The team's record has been at the bottom of the Eastern Conference for a long time, which also made them determined to dive record to protect this first-round pick (if it is outside the top six picks, this draft pick will belong to the Thunder).

In the end, Philadelphia was lucky enough to win the third pick in the first round, but after the team signed Paul George for 4 years, $205 million, the salary problem has been very serious. Without any action next year, the team's salary will reach $166 million for nearly 7 players with guarantee contracts. There is only $21.8 million left to the salary cap. However, they do not want to let Grimes, who averaged 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game in the team last year, and they are likely to give a long-term contract of $15-20 million. In this case, another rookie contract worth tens of millions of dollars is added, and the guarantee contract of only 9 people has exceeded the league's salary cap.

So from the beginning, Philadelphia had the intention to trade this draft pick, and Es Bailey's sudden breakup of the appointment further promoted the implementation of the Sixers' idea. Currently, there are teams including the Nets, the Trail Blazers, the Wizards, etc., who are interested in this draft pick. The final result will also be a big highlight.

The third one is what Yang Hansen's final draft rankings were. He went to the United States to participate in training since early May, and upgraded the draft pick from the end of the second round. In the latest DraftRoom mock draft ranking, Yang Hansen has reached the 26th pick in the first round and will be selected by the Brooklyn Nets. As for the final result, there will be a final result within two days.

And in addition to the draft, there may be more important transactions. Reporter Shams said more than once on the TV show that this year's draft conference has very variables, and there may be many All-Star players changing their foyer with draft pick transactions. There are currently players with trading rumors, and the biggest player is undoubtedly Jaylen Brown of the Celtics.

At the same time, there are many teams that have no draft picks this year, and they also want to get their favorite high-potential rookies through trades, such as the Houston Rockets. And what will the result of all this be? There will be an accurate answer in the next two days. What are the most anticipated moments for this talent show? Welcome to leave a message for discussion!
