NBA Draft Lottery With Video
Below you will find the full 4 minute of the draft lottery.
Biggest Winners
Grizzles - Some people criticized Memphis for not tanking the final week of the season as they ended up winning 5 of their final 6 games. When Portland jumped up that made the 6th pick their most likely destination. Just like during the Ja draft they are rewarded for not tanking and jump up from 5 to 2.
Trailblazers - Their pick was lottery protected so they were also going to keep it. A monumental moment for the franchise as they jump all the way up from 8 to 1. They were rumblings they would blow it up and now they can add someone like Patrick Ewing or Karl Malone to give Dame some help.
Thunder - Yes they dropped down with their own pick from 1 to 3. They are still winners as the Houston draft swap was top 4 protected. In the end they will have picks 3 and 5 and instantly will become one of the most fun franchises in the league.
Biggest Losers
Rockets - Heartbreaking moment and the Russell Westbrook trade now likely will go down as one of the worst in recent memory. They desperately needed it to land in the top 4 where they would have keep it.
Bulls - They drop down from 4 to 2 which likely takes them out of the Karl Malone sweepstakes.
Pistons - They drop from 4 to 6 where Joe Dumars will probably be gone.
