Cleveland Cavaliers win the NBA draft lottery,
get the first and fourth selections next month
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Cavaliers finished with the first and fourth choices in the first round of next month's NBA draft following Tuesday's draft lottery held in Secaucas, N.J.
The Cavaliers benefited from their deal with the Los Angeles Clippers that sent Mo Williams to the Clippers and Baron Davis and a first-round pick to the Cavaliers, as that was the pick that was rewarded by the ping-pong balls and moved into the top three selections. The Cavaliers' own selection, which held the second-best chance (19.8 percent) for the No. 1 pick, was bumped to the fourth spot when Utah also moved into the top three.
