The NBA draft lottery is upon us and our latest mock draft has a few surprises. We ran a lottery simulation, courtesy of Tankathon, and the Bulls were the big winners in the Zion Williamson sweepstakes. While Chicago does not necessarily need a big man, there is no way they turn down a chance to draft the Duke star.
Knicks fans will not be happy as they dropped all the way down to No. 5 despite being tied for the best odds to land Williamson. Thanks to the new NBA lottery rules, no team has the outright best odds to win the No. 1 pick. The Knicks, Cavs and Suns are all tied with a 14 percent chance to win the lottery.
Chicago won our mock simulation with a 12.5 percent chance, the fourth best odds of any team. Atlanta rounds out the top five with a 10.5 percent chance. The Hawks could have two top 10 lottery picks as they will get the Mavericks selection as long as it falls outside the top five.
We know the draft order for picks No. 15 through No. 30 in the first round and the entire second round. The draft lottery will determine the order for the top 14 picks.
The following mock draft order is based on a mock simulation we ran. Here is a look at our latest two-round NBA mock draft.
