The 2023 NBA draft, the 77th edition of the National Basketball Association's annual draft, was held on June 22, 2023, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The draft consisted of 58 picks instead of the typical 60 for the second year in a row due to the loss of a second-round pick for both the Chicago Bulls and the Philadelphia 76ers for violating the NBA's tampering rules during free agency. The first overall selection was made by the San Antonio Spurs, who selected the 7'4" French center Victor Wembanyama.
Brandon Miller was selected 2nd overall by the Charlotte Hornets.
Bilal Coulibaly was selected 7th overall by the Indiana Pacers (traded to the Washington Wizards).
Jarace Walker was selected 8th overall by the Washington Wizards (traded to the Indiana Pacers).
