Does anyone know when the coin toss between the Wolves and Grizzlies will be?

I believe it takes place after the revealing of the infamous ping pong balls "winners" of the top 3 spots are announced. If neither of us gets the top 3 spots then they do the coin flip. Otherwise, the point is moot.
I've been a fan since the beginning and I will be until my end.

No, the coin flip is a lot earlier than the lotto. I don't know a date though. It may be today - last year it was April 18th.

No, they do it before the lottery.

I've heard it's today. They seem to keep it hush-hush every year until after it's already happened.

It usually happens RIGHT after the season ends. So I would be shocked if we don't know by Monday.

Zgoda says the flip is today after the Board of Governors meeting. If you scroll into the comments sections he also has quite a few tidbits about potential GM candidates.
