Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis will represent the organization at the NBA draft lottery on Tuesday in Chicago, Illinois, the team announced.
The Kings enter the lottery slotted seventh after finishing with a 30-52 record this season. They have a 7.5% chance of winning the No. 1 pick and a 32% chance of jumping up into the top four. They own the highest odds of earning the eighth pick (34.1%).
Sacramento currently has just one first-round pick and two selections in the second round, picks No. 37 and 49, respectively. They acquired an additional second-round pick from the Chicago Bulls in a previous trade.

Sacramento will make its 16th straight appearance in the lottery due to having the longest playoff drought in history. The Kings drafted Davion Mitchell with the ninth pick last year and Tyrese Haliburton with the 12th pick in 2020.
The draft lottery is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. EDT on ESPN.
