Nerlens Noel To Represent Sixers At Tuesday's Draft Lottery

By Andrew Porter

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) --- The Sixers' 2014-15 NBA Rookie of the Year candidate, Nerlens Noel, will represent his team at Tuesday's NBA Draft Lottery. Sixers CEO Scott O'Neil tweeted the news on Thursday morning.

Last year, Julius Erving represented the Sixers at the event.

The Sixers are most likely to acquire the third pick the 2015 NBA Draft and will earn, no lower, than pick No. 6. The Sixers also have a relatively small chance in acquiring the first-round picks of the Lakers (top-five protected) and Heat (top-ten protected). The best case scenario for the Sixers are picks one, six, and 11.

Hopefully, Noel and his flat-top can bring us some good luck.
