The 2015 Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Rookie Draft is a few weeks away and everyone is excited to see the new batch of rookies. The event will be held at the Midtown Atrium, Robinsons Place Manila on August 23, 2015. Starting this year, the league will abandon its lottery system after the controversies that surrounded the previous year's draft. Instead, the league will determine the drafting order based on the performance of the member teams for the 2014–15 season, with the worst team picking first.
