NBA Draft Lottery 2020: Minnesota Timberwolves win draft lottery to earn no.1 pick - Full results, draft order image

The NBA Draft Lottery has come to a conclusion, with the Minnesota Timberwolves earning the No. 1 overall pick!

The Timberwolves struggled in the 2019-20 regular season, going 19-45 prior to the season shutdown and will now have a chance to add another elite prospect to the core of Karl-Anthony Towns and D'Angelo Russell.

The Golden State Warriors, who finished with the worst record in the league (15-50) can bolster their already talented lineup after an injury-plagues season as they secured the no.2 pick in the draft, while the New York Knicks fell back to the no.8 pick.
