The NBA first round consists of 30 picks, one for each of the 30 teams in the league. Each team normally has one pick in the first round, although this can vary due to trades. In summary:
- There are 30 picks in the NBA first round.
- The order is generally determined by a draft lottery and team records from the previous season.
- The 2025 NBA Draft first round had 30 picks selected on one night, June 25, 2025.
This is consistent year to year for the modern NBA draft format.
