Draft lottery party tonight

| Comments |

Any Kings fans who make a habit out of leaving work early can head on over to Chris Webber's Center Court restaurant in Natomas (3600 N. Freeway Blvd.) for a 4:30 p.m. draft lottery party.
Kings director of player personnel and color analyst Jerry Reynolds will be on hand to take questions from fans, and he'll be joined by the team's mascot (Slamson), members of the Sacramento Kings dance team, and fans and friends and family of the luckiest fan - Margie Parilo.
Parilo, to review, won the luckiest season ticket holder contest and has traveled to Secaucus, N.J. for the actual event. And not to be the party pooper, but here's the hard data on how unlikely it is that the Kings will be moving up. They have a 93.55 percent chance of selecting No. 12 overall, a 1.01 percent chance of picking third, a 0.83 percent chance of picking second, and a 0.70 percent chance of landing the No. 1 pick. To round it out, they also have a 3.89 percent chance of dropping to No. 13 and a 0.02 percent chance of picking fourteenth. - Sam Amick
