If you do not plan to be in the Big Apple then, you can still catch the event for free at Watch ESPN, according to Nola. .
This year's lottery will set the selection order for the 2015 NBA Draft's first 14 picks. It will be held on June 25 in Brooklyn, at the Barclays Center.
Each of the 14 teams that did not make the 2015 NBA Playoffs has a chance to earn one of the top-three draft picks. The Minnesota Timberwolves, which had the worst NBA record (16-66), has the best chance (25 percent) to win the 1st Pick during the 2015 NBA Draft Lottery.
The New York Knicks, with a lowly 17-65 regular season record, has the second-best lottery odds (19.9 percent) to win the 1st Pick. Rounding out the "top" three teams is the Philadelphia 76ers, whose 18-64 record wins them a consolation prize: a 15.60 percent chance to win the first draft choice.
Lady Luck has recently been with the Cleveland Cavaliers, which won the NBA Lottery Draft in 2014 and 2013. Lebron James' team beat the odds in 2014, with only a ninth-best, 1.7 percent chance of winning, according to ESPN.
One year earlier, the New Orleans Hornets hit the jackpot when they had favorable odds of 13.7 percent. The team later selected Kentucky's Anthony Davis.
The first ever NBA Draft Lottery happened in 1985. That year the New York Knicks won the event, later choosing Georgetown's Patrick Ewing.
