The 13th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The New Jersey Nets, by way of the Orlando Magic! (95.18% chance of landing in this spot) This pick was top five protected by the Magic, but doesn't jump into the top four of the lottery and will convey to the Nets as a result. It was a really one of two picks that landed the Magic Lindsey Hunter, and went to the Nets via the Bucks in the Shaquille O'Neal trade. |

The 12th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Miami Heat! (88.25% chance of landing in this spot) The Heat were at risk of losing this pick if they made the playoffs, but they fell just short and will reap the rewards of the #12 overall pick as a result. |

The 11th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Milwaukee Bucks, by way of the Minnesota Timberwolves! (75.02% chance of landing in this spot) The Timberwolves gave up this pick in exchange for Jalen Rose a few seasons prior, and it was flipped to the Cavaliers this past off-season in a deal that found the Cavaliers reacquiring their own first round pick in this year's draft. |

The 10th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Sacramento Kings! (62.82% chance of landing in this spot) After adding two of the league's top rookies last off-season, the Kings will have another opportunity to add to their young core with a top ten pick. |

The 9th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Boston Celtics! (52.01% chance of landing in this spot) One year after selecting first overall, the Celtics will add a top ten talent to All-Rookie 1st teamer Shawn Marion. |

The 8th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Phoenix Suns! (35.36% chance of landing in this spot) The long run of mediocrity continued this year in Phoenix. Will the #8 overall pick be enough to get this core into perennial playoff contention? |

The 7th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Denver Nuggets! (20.25% chance of landing in this spot) Stop me if you've heard this before, but the Nuggets have failed to jump in the lottery for the fifth straight year. For the second year in a row, no team outside the top seven has broken into the top four. |

The 6th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Cleveland Cavaliers! (26.88% chance of landing in this spot) This pick marks a triple jump, with the Spurs, Nets, and Raptors all securing a spot in the top four. A very tough outcome for the Cavaliers, who had the third best odds of landing the #1 overall pick. |

The 5th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Vancouver Grizzlies! (47.62% chance of landing in this spot) After posting one of the worst seasons in TSFBL history, the Grizzlies will only have the #5 overall pick to show for it. This means our top four will consist of Philadelphia, San Antonio, New Jersey, and Toronto. Stay tuned to find out the order! |

The 4th pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The San Antonio Spurs! (11.77% chance of landing in this spot) Despite all the chaos happening around them, the Spurs fall into their projected slot. Will this finally get them out of the basement of the league? |

The 3rd pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to: The New Jersey Nets! (10.61% chance of landing in this spot) One year after picking twice in the top four, the Nets will again have two lottery picks to add to PG Baron Davis. With plenty more picks to come, the future looks bright in New Jersey. |

The 2nd pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Toronto Raptors! (9.25% chance of landing in this spot) This franchise just got the lifeline it needed, considering they traded away a lottery pick last season and don't own their own first round pick for three consecutive drafts following this one. And that means... The 1st pick in the 2000 Rookie Draft belongs to:  The Philadelphia 76ers! (14.07% chance of landing in this spot) Congratulations to the Philadelphia 76ers, who overtook the Spurs for the second-worst record in the league very late in the season and parlayed it into the #1 overall pick. They'll have their choice of many promising young draft picks. |
