The 42nd NBA Draft Lottery determined the order of selection for the first 14 picks of the 2026 NBA Draft presented by State Farm. Drawings were conducted to determine the first four picks in the NBA Draft. The remainder of the “lottery teams” were selected in positions five through 14 in reverse order of their 2025-26 regular-season records.

The Washington Wizards received the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA draft during a full lottery production in Chicago hosted by the league.

In Washington, Dybantsa will help fill just about every need. He's a 6'9", ultra-athletic, powerful wing with elite footwork for creation, shotmaking and finishing. And he also happened to lead the NCAA in scoring this past season with 25.5 points per game.
