The last time the Hornets drew the first pick was in 1991 when they were in Charlotte and selected Larry Johnson from UNLV. Experts are expecting New Orleans to draft Kentucky Star Anthony Davis.

The Charlotte Bobcats, who set an NBA record for the lowest winning percentage in a regular season, drew the second pick.  The Washington Wizards will pick third and the Cleveland Cavaliers will pick fourth.
