Some Notes for Next Tuesday Night's NBA Lottery in Chicago
Let’s just be honest …
For Cavalier fans, this year’s NBA Lottery won’t be nearly as exciting as last year’s Lottery. The reason? Last year’s Lottery. About 11 months ago, in the league office in Secaucus, New Jersey, the Pistons jumped up one slot to win the 2021 Lottery, followed by Houston and the Cavaliers – giving Cleveland its highest pick since winning the whole thing (for the second straight season) back in 2014. That season, the Wine & Gold tabbed Kansas forward Andrew Wiggins – who was with the team through Summer League before being packaged with the previous season’s top pick, Anthony Bennett, and shipped to Minnesota in exchange for All-Star forward Kevin Love.
