When Is NBA Draft 2026? Schedule, Channel, Live Stream & Full List of Celtics Picks originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Star prospects will officially make the jump from college to the professional ranks when the 2026 NBA Draft begins on Tuesday night.
After finishing with one of the best records in the Eastern Conference during the 2025-26 regular season, the Celtics will enter the draft with a late first-round pick and an early second-round pick. However, those picks could be part of a trade package for Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is expected to be moved very soon.
Will Boston lose those picks in order to gain a two-time MVP? And how many other trades will shake up the draft board?
Here is everything you need to know about the 2026 NBA Draft, including TV and streaming options for the event.
