For fans of any team that didn’t make the playoffs this year, tonight has been a long time coming. Some fans, like those who root for the New York Knicks or Atlanta Hawks, have had tonight circled on their calendars for months. While others who had playoffs on their mind this year, like the Charlotte Hornets and Los Angeles Lakers, may have only just recently been interested in tonight’s ping-pong ball party.
Fortunately or unfortunately (take your pick), the Washington Wizards will be firmly entrenched in tonight’s NBA Draft Lottery action.
