Magic win lottery for No. 1 pick in 2022 NBA Draft

Orlando Magic hold the No. 1 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft after winning the Draft Lottery on Tuesday.

The Houston Rockets, Magic, Detroit Pistons and Oklahoma City Thunder entered the day with the joint best shot at landing the first pick in the draft as they each had a 14% chance at claiming the top spot.

While 14 teams were eligible for the lottery, both the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers had previously traded away their picks.  The Lakers spot now belongs to the New Orleans Pelicans and the Clippers selection is the property of the Thunder.
