Would assume its on ESPN as part of the pregame show prior to Clippers vs Suns. That's been the precedent as far as I recall, so would think ESPN.com or app would have it if you were looking for an actual link.

I will happy with two results.

1. We win a top 3 pick.

2. We drop to like 7 or lower

I don't mind having our pick next season in a possibly stacked draft, I also never felt like we would retain this pick so if we do it will be a big pleasant surprise. Would love to see the Warriors get a pick like 7 and use it on a player who doesn't amount to much.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.

Think the top three picks will go Bulls,Rockets and Wolves.NBA would love to have Cunningham or Suggs running the point in Chicago to go along side LaVine and Vucevic and turn them back into a playoff team.While I think the Rockets will get the 2nd pick because of the Harden deal and lastly the Wolves finally move up and should get a top 3 pick with A-Rod coming in,well you know if the lottery is rigged that so many always think.

They had the 3rd worst record. I’d call that moving up.

If you think the lottery is rigged, predict the order of the first four, before it is announced.

Let's see if the DLO-Wiggins trade proves to be one of the worst ever...

Pray Rosas, just pray!

The only result that will kill my soul is if we give up pick #4.

If Twolves don’t get top 3 I would like to see Bulls get in top 2 for it would be nice to see LaVine play with great young PG in Chicago.
