Even though the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Indiana Pacers to conclude the National Basketball Association (NBA) season, the excitement continues this week as supporters anticipate the 2025 NBA Draft.

Given that they now hold the highly sought-after first pick, the Dallas Mavericks are expected to choose Cooper Flagg as the top draft pick. In addition to Dylan Harper, Kon Knueppel, VJ Edgecombe, and Ace Bailey, several more players are anticipated to switch teams throughout the big event.

The event will last two days, beginning with the first round on Wednesday, June 25. The second round will then take place on Thursday, June 26.

Which clubs are in a position to make a major move in the 2025 NBA Draft?

The teams that are projected to benefit the most from the 2025 Draft are listed below:

The Philadelphia 76ers

There is still no agreement as to the No. 3 potential in the draft. According to CBS Sports, Ace Bailey is the player who has been put there the most often.

He has avoided the team selecting at No. 3 (Philadelphia 76ers) and has avoided the No. 4 Charlotte Hornets and No. 5 Utah Jazz. Discussions are circulating that his top choices are Washington, New Orleans, and Brooklyn, all of which have expressed interest in signing him.

Earlier, ESPN's Jonathan Givony stated that Utah or Charlotte could think about employing Bailey and then decide for themselves.

Toronto Raptors

The Raptors, who have the ninth overall selection, have a good possibility of improving their position. As of right now, Scottie Barnes is the only player on the squad with potential to be an All-Star.

The Kevin Durant trade has already been investigated by the Raptors, and they are anticipated to trade out of the first round completely. This offseason, they hope to sign a significant player to the roster.

Sun of Phoenix

The Suns obtained the tenth overall choice in Sunday's trade with the Rockets for Kevin Durant. The side is in desperate need of someone to rescue its owner, Mat Ishbia.

One of the most important questions following Durant's departure is how the Suns intend to fill the starting center position. With the Durant deal, they hoped to acquire a player there, but they were unsuccessful. Under these circumstances, supporters may watch Duke center Khaman Maluach.

Spurs of San Antonio

As they used the first lottery pick, No. 4, on Stephon Castle, the Spurs last time entered draft night with two lottery picks. Later, they exchanged Rob Dillingham for a first-round selection with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Spurs currently have two first-round picks, as they did before. This time, the team has the 14th overall selection.

Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder has three selections in the 2025 NBA Draft—the 15th, 24th, and 44th overall. The team is hoping to advance in the draft and select a high-quality prospect. If not, they might follow the Spurs' lead and convert a current selection into future value.
