The NBA Draft Lottery has grown into among the best non-game occasions in all of sports activities. It’s the place goals or nightmares can come true for NBA groups and their followers.
Two years in the past, the New Orleans Pelicans noticed their goals come true, touchdown the No. 1 total decide and the precise to draft phenom Zion Williamson. This 12 months, the Pelicans weren’t as fortunate.
Slotted for the tenth spot within the draft earlier than the lottery, New Orleans’ NBA workforce ended up staying proper there. Although Pelicans followers have been disillusioned, the math checks out. New Orleans had a 60.6 p.c likelihood of remaining within the tenth spot, a 20.3 p.c likelihood of touchdown a top-four decide, and only a 4.5% likelihood of leaping to No. 1 total.
Pelicans Vice President of Basketball Operations and former WNBA famous person Swin Cash represented New Orleans on the draft lottery. And her response to seeing the Pelicans card drawn of their expected 10th slot embodied that of each basketball fan who walks away from the lottery disillusioned.
The Pelicans didn’t win the lottery, however Cash’s apparent disappointment was caught by ESPN cameras, and shortly went viral on social media.
