2022 NBA Draft: Will Jabari Smith Jr. be the #1 Pick?

The NBA Draft is an annual event dating back to 1947 in which the teams from the National Basketball Association (NBA) can draft players who are eligible and wish to join the league. The NBA Draft's first overall pick is the player who is selected first among all eligible draftees by a team during the draft. The first pick is awarded to the team that wins the NBA draft lottery. The team with the first pick attracts significant media attention, as does the player who is selected with that pick. The 2022 NBA draft (the 76th edition) is scheduled to be held on June 23, 2022, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. This market will resolve to "Yes" if Jabari Smith Jr. is selected as the first overall pick of this draft, and to "No" otherwise. If for any reason the the first pick of the 2022 NBA Draft does not occur by June 30, 2022 (11:59:59 PM ET) this market will resolve to 50-50.
