On Tuesday, May 19, 14 representatives from the NBA’s non-playoff teams will meet at the New York Hilton Midtown for the 2015 NBA Draft Lottery. For the uninitiated, this event will determine the order of the first 14 picks in the draft.
Finishing with a 39-43 record this season, the Suns had the ninth best record in the Western Conference and the second best record among non-playoff teams. As such, they have the greatest probability of snagging the 13th pick — the second worst pick in the lottery.
On Tuesday, the Suns will be hoping their draft lottery representative — Alex Len, Phoenix’s fifth overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft — will bring them some good luck and defy the odds in the form of a top-three pick.
