While the Milwaukee Bucks don’t start their first round playoff series until Sunday, Friday afternoon marked an important event for the franchise to bridge the gap between the regular season and post-season.
Following a Board of Governor’s meeting in New York, the annual tradition of random drawings to split draft tiebreakers took place.
The Bucks were among the teams with a vested interest in the results of that drawing, and luck was on their side as they got the result required to keep their pick. As a result, Milwaukee will select at 17 in this summer’s NBA Draft.
