2016 NBA Draft Lottery is tonight in New York City and currently, the Philadelphia 76ers have the best odds to secure the top pick, the Los Angeles Lakers have the second best and the Boston Celtics, by way of the Brooklyn Nets, have the third best odds of landing the top pick. The prize of the draft is Ben Simmons but there also is another top prospect in Brandon Ingram that also has people going nuts.
The Lakers could lose their pick to the 76ers, the Kings could also lose their pick to Philly and the Minnesota Timberwolves are looking to be the first team in NBA history to have three number one overall picks on their roster if they land the top spot.
A lot of teams are hoping for some luck and most notably, 2016 NBA Rookie of the Year Karl-Anthony Towns is going to be wearing late coach Flip Saunders wedding ring around his neck to help bring some luck for the Wolves.
.@KarlTowns will bring one of the late Flip Saunders' wedding rings with him to NY as a good luck charm. Will wear it around his neck.
