The Philadelphia 76ers will select No. 1 overall after moving up from No. 3 in a trade with the Boston Celtics.

According to ESPN.com, the Sixers are expected to make Fultz the No. 1 overall pick to add to their already-impressive stable of youngsters that includes Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid and Dario Saric.

The Los Angeles Lakers have yet to publicly tip their hand with regard to what they will do at No. 2, but they have long been linked to Ball.

Ball's outspoken father, LaVar Ball, expressed confidence this week that the former UCLA guard will end up in L.A., per TMZ Sports"Everybody knows [Lonzo's] going to be a Laker."

With the No. 3 overall pick, Celtics general manager Danny Ainge said he believes the player he wanted all along will still be available, according to ESPN.com: "We think there's a really good chance the player we'll take at [No.] 3 is the same player we would have taken at [No.] 1. So this was a great opportunity to acquire an impactful asset."

ESPN's Chad Ford reported last week that Boston had heavy interest in Jackson.

Among the biggest names who won't be in attendance at the draft are Duke Blue Devils forward Harry Giles and Purdue Boilermakers forward Caleb Swanigan.
