With almost two months still to go before the NBA Draft Lottery, the discussion over the Minnesota Timberwolves first pick in October comes with caveats.
Their top selection could range anywhere from No. 1 to No. 7, and the chances Minnesota receives the top pick are only 14 percent.
But this is a rare draft class in that the guys at the top of most boards, LaMelo Ball and Anthony Edwards, are not guaranteed to go 1-2. So, even if Minnesota were to miss out on the top picks, one of these players could still be available.
