Here is how the NBA 2026 draft lottery unfolded from Chicago on Sunday as the Wizards won the No. 1 pick.

The Washington Wizards won the NBA draft lottery, earning the right to add the No.1 overall pick in the 2026 class while there was a clear loser from Monday mornings ping-pong drawing.

One of the NBA's bottom feeders got some sorely needed good news on Sunday by winning the draft lottery and getting the first pick in next month's draft at Brooklyn's Barclays Center.

The leagues worst team this season is getting the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft.The Washington Wizards won the draft lottery on Sunday and are poised to pick first overall for the first time since choosing John Wall in that spot in 2010. Wall was the Wizards on-stage representative for the lottery.Washington had a 14% chance of winning No. 1, tied with Brooklyn and Indiana for the best odds. The Wizards had basically a 50-50 chance of getting either a top-four pick or the No. 5 spot.But three consecutive years of losing the three worst seasons in the franchises 65-year history finally paid off Sunday for the Wizards, who went 17-65 this season and even allowed Miamis Bam Adebayo to score 83 points for the leagues second-highest single-game total ever.The Wizards swung deals to land Trae Young and Anthony Davis last season, and now they have a chance to add an immediate impact player with the No. 1 pick.Utah will pick No. 2, Memphis will pick No. 3 and Chicago will pick No. 4.The Los Angeles Clippers got the fifth pick via a trade with the Pacers followed by No. 6 Brooklyn, No. 7 Sacramento, No. 8 Atlanta, No. 9 Dallas, No. 10 Milwaukee, No. 11 Golden State, No. 12 Oklahoma City, No. 13 Miami and No. 14 Charlotte.The draft begins June 23 in New York. The draft combine in Chicago starts on Monday.No. 1 pick possibilitiesThere are four candidates that generally are considered front-runners to be the No. 1 pick, all of them entering the draft after their freshman years of college. They are: BYUs AJ Dybantsa, who led the nation in scoring at 25.5 points per game in his lone college season. Dukes Cameron Boozer, the AP player of the year who averaged 22.5 points and 10.1 rebounds. Kansas Darryn Peterson, who averaged 20.2 points in 24 games for the Jayhawks. North Carolinas Caleb Wilson, who averaged 19.8 points and 9.4 rebounds on 58% shooting.All four of those players, and a few other likely first-round selections, were all among those in the studio for the announcement of the lottery results Sunday at Chicago's Navy Pier.Standing here is kind of crazy, Dybantsa said. One of these teams is going to be home.Last of this format (probably)This was the eighth, and likely final, year of this version of an NBA draft lottery, with the worst teams having a 14% chance of winning.Framework fell into place last month on changes meant to further discourage tanking, and the leagues Board of Governors is expected to ratify that plan in the next few weeks with general managers meeting in Chicago on Tuesday to discuss them presumably for one last time.The three worst teams, starting next season, would have a 5.4% chance of winning with the next seven teams all having an 8.1% chance of winning. The lottery would grow from 14 to 16 teams if the plan, as expected, is approved.___AP NBA: https://apnews.com/nba

Daniel Dubois stands to hand over more than 600,000 to the taxman following his spectacular triumph against Fabio Wardley on Saturday night.The 28-year-old heavyweight claimed the WBO belt after stopping his opponent in the 11th round at Manchester's Co-Op Live arena.This victory marks Dubois' third world title, adding to the WBA (Regular) and IBF championships he has previously captured.Reports suggest the British fighter earned approximately 1.3million for the contest, though a substantial portion of that sum will never reach his bank account.TRENDINGStoriesVideosYour SayThe UK's tax system means high earners face significant deductions, with Dubois set to lose a considerable chunk of his purse to HMRC.Those earning above 125,140 annually in Britain are subject to a 45 per cent additional rate of taxation.Applied to Dubois' reported purse, this translates to roughly 585,000 being directed straight to Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs.On top of this, the champion faces a two per cent National Insurance contribution amounting to approximately 26,000.Combined, these deductions total a staggering 611,000 from his fight earnings.If the purse figures are accurate, Dubois would retain around 689,000 from the bout.LATEST SPORTS NEWS:Fabio Wardley gives health update to his mother after losing Daniel Dubois boxing fightArne Slot responds to booing Liverpool fans after Rio Ngumoha decision: 'People don't know everything'Rory McIlroy forced to intervene after crowd incident at Truist ChampionshipYet even this reduced sum will shrink further, as boxers traditionally share a percentage of their earnings with their training team, corner staff and gym facilities.Reflecting on the brutal encounter, Dubois acknowledged the gruelling nature of the contest."It was a war. We come through the sticky moments. It was a war. Thank you, Fabio, for that. Thank you," he said.Looking ahead, the newly crowned WBO champion expressed his determination to build on this success."I want to grow from this fight, improve and come back even better and go on a reign as champion again," Dubois declared.Promoter Frank Warren was effusive in his praise for both competitors. "It was amazing. These two guys show such heart - both of them," he remarked."Great heart, chins, it was an amazing fight. It was just absorbing, it had everything. Exciting. Best heavyweight fight I've ever put on."Dubois now faces several potential paths forward in his career.The fight contract includes a rematch clause with Wardley, though Warren offered few details about the champion's immediate plans.A third meeting with undefeated Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk remains an enticing prospect, despite Dubois suffering two losses to the 39-year-old.Their first encounter in August 2023 ended with Usyk stopping the Briton in round nine, while their Wembley rematch last July saw Dubois knocked out in the fifth.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
