The Minnesota Timberwolves, Los Angeles Lakers, and Philadelphia 76ers were the big winners in today’s NBA Draft Lottery. Those three will draft one, two, and three in the coming 2015 NBA Draft.
Despite the Rajon Rondo trade, the Dallas Mavericks kept their draft pick this season. They hold the 21st and 52nd pick this summer.
The future first round pick the Boston Celtics received from Dallas was protected between selections 1-3 and 15-30 this season.
Dallas has flopped in previous drafts. Dominique Jones, Jared Cunningham, Ricky Ledo, Bernard James, Shane Larkin, and Jae Crowder highlight the Mavs’ selections.
