  • The second round kicked off at 8 p.m. Eastern from Barclays Center and is airing live on ESPN and ESPN Deportes with free streaming trials available on FuboTV, DIRECTV and discounted Sling TV plans.
  • Minnesota opened the night with the 31st overall pick and is heavily linked to Saint Joseph’s forward Rasheer Fleming, who leads early betting odds.
  • Charlotte holds back-to-back selections at Nos. 33 and 34 and could either bolster its frontcourt or use one pick as trade leverage.
