NBA Draft Lottery Results 2020: Timberwolves Earn No. 1 Pick

The Minnesota Timberwolves earned the No. 1 pick in the 2020 NBA draft on Thursday after winning the league's annual draft lottery.

Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, NBA deputy commissioner Mark Tatum announced the results from the league's offices in Secaucus, N.J. in front of representatives from each team.

Unlike in recent years, there is no consensus No. 1 pick heading into the 2020 NBA draft. Georgia's Anthony Edwards is an explosive guard and thrived during his lone season in college while Memphis product James Wiseman could be a potential top option despite playing just three collegiate games.
