The Phoenix Suns won the Draft Lottery on Tuesday.
It sounds extremely counterintuitive, like saying Elliot Perry is the greatest point guard in Suns history or Lindsay Lohan is the best actress of our time. But, unlike those ridiculous examples, this one is true.
No, the Suns didn’t wind up in the top three of this June’s draft, but you already knew that. They even saw a long-time hated rival, the Los Angeles Lakers, defy the odds to get the second pick overall. It mattered about as much as the traffic laws do in the draft lottery host city of New York.
