I hit it once and landed Ja 2nd. Send me to Chicago to represent. This team needs a little luck of the Irish.

Played it 5 times straight....10th, 10th, 10th, 2nd, 1st. Rather be 10th than 14th I guess?

Did anyone figure out what our chances of getting top 4 is? Gotta be at least twice what it would to get top 3 last year.

Thought I heard awhile back it was about 10%.

Got a second the third time I did it. Got Ja, Hawks got number one (Zion) and then couple teams in the east got three and four. That would be perfect.

I would absolutely take Darius Garland if he slips that far. He probably won't though.

May 14th is the lottery date. I have a feeling its going to be great. If we land number 1 let the haters hate, because then we draft Zion posthaste!

Would be hard to pass on Zion for any franchise but I do think it's fairly obvious this is one those teams that would have the bigger need for Ja. Suns might be in the same boat too.

I was in agreement with your take on Morant. I want him here, badly. Need that stud PG going forward with KAT. And you put " …" below my comment.

Yeah because I double posted the thing you agreed with. Keep your pants on. I’m starting FT and dealing with some tech issues.

First time I tried: Dallas, Minnesota, Cleveland. As a basketball fan, Luka/Zion would be very entertaining.

Two man draft. For the first time ever, we'll move up... but to #3. Draft Barrett. He'll bust. 'Round and 'round we goooo!

Below is a look at the Timberwolves’ odds in the NBA lottery for each pick:

1: 3.0%

2: 3.3%

3. 3.6%

4. 4.0%

5-9: 0%

10: 65.9%

11: 18.9%

12: 1.2 %

13: Less than 1%

14: Less than 1%

So, to recap, more than likely, the Wolves will stick at No. 10. They have a 13.9 percent chance to move up and just more than a 20 percent chance to move back.

You’re probably wondering why the Timberwolves can’t get the No. 5-9 picks. That’s because the first four picks are awarded by a drawing of ping pong balls. The rest of the picks (5-14) are assigned and sorted by team records. The Wolves would move back only if a team behind them (Lakers, Hornets, Heat or Kings) jumped into the top four.

The Knicks, Cavaliers and Suns all have a 14 percent chance to get the No. 1 pick with the NBA’s lottery reformation.

But that doesn't mean Luka/Zion wouldn't be entertaining.
