The 2021 NBA Draft Lottery is right around the corner and while the Denver Nuggets don’t have any ping pong balls or frozen envelopes in this year’s, it’s an important lottery with wide-reaching implications for the entire league.

There are a couple of make-or-break situations that could leave franchises miserable for the rest of the offseason while some franchises *cough* OKC and Golden State *cough* can leave the lottery with an NBA 2K MyGM-level of draft capital.

Denver holds the 26th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft and there doesn’t look to be any major trade-up moves on the horizon… for now. Regardless, the lottery night is always a fun one, especially for that blue app with the white bird on it.

This article’s going to look at some of the possible outcomes, what they mean for the league and how they might impact the Denver Nuggets in their pursuit for an NBA title.
