After months of waiting and watching, we are about to find out where Zion Williamson is going with the No. 1 pick in the 2019 NBA draft. (Yes, that’s assuming the team that wins Tuesday night’s NBA draft lottery actually picks him first overall, but that feels like a pretty safe assumption at this point.)
The best odds lie with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Phoenix Suns, and New York Knicks, all of which have a 14 percent chance to land the top pick. The Chicago Bulls are next-best at 12.5 percent, followed by the Atlanta Hawks at 10.5
The Suns had the top odds in 2018 and did indeed land the No. 1 pick, drafting Deandre Ayton first overall out of Arizona.
May the best — or worst — team win.
