The 2017 NBA Draft is nearly here, and as of now, the Los Angeles Lakers still have the second overall pick in the draft.
Since the Philadelphia 76ers traded for the first overall pick, we know that they will be selecting Markelle Fultz from Washington. This means that the Lakers will be able to take Lonzo Ball like many have expected throughout the draft process.
While there has been some talk about Josh Jackson and De’Aaron Fox, Chad Ford of ESPN.com has them going with Ball when they are on the clock.
