The 1972 NBA draft was the 26th annual draft of the National Basketball Association (NBA).
 The draft was held on April 10 and 15, 1972 before the 1972–73 season.

 The remaining first-round picks and the subsequent rounds were assigned to teams in reverse order of their win–loss record in the previous season.

 Prior to the start of the season, the Cincinnati Royals relocated and became the Kansas City-Omaha Kings.
