NBA Draft Lottery 2015: Complete representatives
By Jack Crosby
A look at the representatives for all the teams that will be involved in the NBA Draft Lottery on Tuesday night
Tuesday night we’ll see who the luckiest team in the NBA is, as the NBA Draft Lottery will take place. Now while this team was not lucky in the regular season, they’re lucky in the respect that they will have the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft next month and a shot at landing who they feel is the top player in the talent pool.
Now part of what makes the Draft Lottery event interesting is the fact that each team involved is represented by someone that means something significant to the organization. It could be a former, legendary player, the child of an executive or even a current player. We’ve seen a wide away of representatives throughout the years for teams in the NBA Draft Lottery.
