Patrick Ewing, the No. 1 pick in the 1985 NBA Draft, will represent the New York Knicks at the 2019 NBA Draft lottery at the Hilton Chicago next Tuesday.
The Knicks have drafted first only twice since 1965, including selecting Ewing out of Georgetown in a top 10 that also included Chris Mullin , Detlef Schrempf and Charles Oakley . The Chicago Bulls finished with the fourth-worst record in the league and have a 12.5 percent chance to win the lottery and draft first overall, which last happened in 2008. That year the Bulls had a 1.8 percent chance to draft first, won the lottery and selected future MVP Derrick Rose.
Last year’s No. 1 pick, Deandre Ayton, will represent the Suns in Chicago, and the Cavaliers again are sending owner Dan Gilbert’s son, Nick Gilbert.
