The NBA Lottery is coming up. This NBA mock draft has five different ways the top five picks could unfold.

The NBA Draft Lottery will happen on Tuesday, but I’m impatient. I want to do an NBA mock draft right now, before the lottery happens.

To make that possible, this NBA mock draft actually has five different draft orders. I hit the sim lottery button on Tankathon until I got five different draft orders, and then took those draft orders and did NBA mock drafts for the top five picks of each one.

I’ll be doing an NBA mock draft for the entire first round once the lottery order is figured out, but for now I just wanted to focus on the potential top picks. Doing 150 different picks in one article would’ve just been ridiculous!

More from Bucks News

This is a Milwaukee Bucks site, so there is a situation included that has the Bucks making the leap to the top five. They won’t be in every scenario though, just to show how much the top five could change based on the teams involved.

I will be noting how each of the simulated draft orders affect the Bucks pick. Some situations could cause Milwaukee to move down, and of course if they get lucky they could move up too.
