Not much payout from this Lottery

May 17, 2011 - 10:50 AM

---Duke's Kyrie Irving and Arizona's Derrick Williams are the top prospects available for the NBA Draft, which holds its Lottery tonight, but the rest of the field has a lot of murkiness.

After the past four drafts produced Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, Blake Griffin and John Wall, 2011 isn’t expected to offer any can’t-miss stars. Whoever wins the lottery can’t be sure they’ll receive a franchise-changing player.
