Jazz, NBA Draft Lottery
Digest more
Now, the Jazz enter another offseason wondering what to do with their roster, especially star forward Lauri Markkanen. The former Cleveland Cavaliers standout has been the subject of trade rumors for years now, but his value is lower now after a contract extension, some injuries and a down season overall.
Not only did the Jazz drop to No. 5 in the draft order, the Dallas Mavericks landed the No. 1 pick (after having only a 1.8% chance to do so), the San Antonio Spurs snagged the No. 2 pick, the Philadelphia 76ers nabbed the No. 3 pick and the Charlotte Hornets got the No. 4 pick.
NBA Draft lottery odds project teams like the Utah Jazz, Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets with the best chance at the No. 1 pick and therefore the chance to grab Cooper Flagg, who could be a generational talent.
