San Antonio Spurs selects Victor Wembanyama with its first pick.

The time for the first pick.

The likely No. 1 pick Victor Wembanyama already is a favourite among the fans.

There have been murmurs that the New Orleans Pelicans are looking to move higher up the order from their current 14th pick. In order to do that, they’re even willing to part with 2019 No. 1 pick Zion Williamson - a player who has struggled with injuries.

So far, however, there’s been no news of a potential move by the team.

The Spurs will make their third No. 1 pick in their history. The franchise’s first pick came in 1987 when they signed David Robinson. The second of the two picks was in 1997 which landed them Tim Duncan.

The two stars won a combined total of five NBA titles and were inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame.

Portland has a big call to make. In an off-season when the noise around Damian Lilliard’s time at the franchise has been the loudest, the team needs a solid support cast. If Charlotte Hornets is to go with Scoot Henderson, then Brandon Miller will be the likely choice for Portland.

Victor Wembanyama has created a buzz rarely seen before in the league. His athletic abilities and unique frame make him a generational talent.

But before his fate is decided in the NBA, here’s the full list of players who have been the first picks in the past.

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Lakers swapped their 47th pick for Indiana Pacers’ 40th pick.

The Lakers now have the 17th and 40th picks in the 2023 Draft.

The big breaking of the day has been Chris Paul’s trade to Golden State Warriors. ESPN and The Athletic report that the Warriors and Washington Wizards are close to reaching a deal where Jordan Poole, Ryan Rollins and two future draft picks will be traded to the Wizards for the veteran point guard.
