Last week, the interesting 2021-22 NBA season finished with the Golden State Warriors defeating the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals for their fourth championship in the last eight seasons, it's now time to turn our attention toward next season and beyond, starting with Thursday's 2022 NBA Draft. 

The draft features no shortage of intriguing prospects as players like Chet Holmgren, Jabari Smith, Paolo Banchero and Jaden Ivey are all expected to hear their names called early on by NBA commissioner Adam Silver. 

For the first time since 2004, the Orlando Magic have the top overall pick in the draft. Back in '04, Orlando selected Dwight Howard with that top pick, and he went on to have some serious success with the franchise, It will be interesting to see what the Magic do with the pick this time around as their decision will set the tone for the rest of the draft. After Orlando, the Oklahoma City Thunder possess the No. 2 overall pick, followed by the Houston Rockets, Sacramento Kings and Detroit Pistons rounding out the top five. 

Ahead of the big night, here's a look at the viewing information and full draft order for the 2022 NBA Draft.
