NBA Draft Lottery 2016 Live: 76ers Get No. 1 Pick; Lakers, Celtics Round Out Top Three

8:26: The Celtics will pick third, the Lakers will pick second and the 76ers will have the No. 1 pick.

Nothing changed. No one dropped, no one jumped.

Here is the final order:
14. Chicago Bulls
13. Phoenix Suns (via Washington Wizards)
12. Utah Jazz
11. Orlando Magic
10. Milwaukee Bucks
9. Toronto Raptors (via Denver Nuggets)
8. Sacramento Kings
7. Denver Nuggets (via New York Knicks)
6. New Orleans Pelicans
5. Minnesota Timberwolves
4. Phoenix Suns
3. Boston Celtics (via Brooklyn Nets)
2. Los Angeles Lakers
1. Philadelphia 76ers

Philadelphia picks first for the first time since 1996 when it selected future Hall of Famer Allen Iverson.

8:25 p.m.: The first 11 picks went in order of record, meaning the Celtics, Lakers and 76ers own the top three draft choices. If the Lakers had fallen out of the top three, they would have lost their first round pick to the Suns. The Suns will pick fourth and 13th next month.

Additionally, the Kings get to keep their pick. If it had fallen out of the top 10, they would have lost it to Chicago.

8:20 p.m.: Here we go.

The Bulls will pick 14th. The Suns will pick 13th (from Washington), the Jazz will pick 12th, the Magic will pick 11th, the Bucks will pick 10th, the Raptors will pick ninth (from Denver), the Kings will pick eighth, the Nuggets will pick seventh, the Pelicans will pick sixth, the Timberwolves will pick fifth and the Suns will pick fourth.

8:15 p.m.: Cool story of the night: Timberwolves rep Karl-Anthony Towns, who just recently won the 2015-16 Rookie of the Year award, is wearing the wedding band of former coach Flip Saunders on a chain around his neck.

Saunders died from cancer before last season.

8:10 p.m.: Here’s a look at a few of the team representatives.
