The 'No. 1 overall NBA draft pick' quiz

The Atlanta Hawks will pick first in the 2024 NBA Draft despite having only a 3% chance of winning the draft lottery. The unexpected win adds more intrigue to what was going to be an interesting offseason in Atlanta anyway. After a disappointing 2023-24 season, the team was expected to trade Trae Young, Dejounte Murray or possibly both in the coming months. But now they may try to pair one of their star guards with whomever they choose with the top selection. Either way, the NBA offseason now revolves around the Hawks as they decide who to build around and who to trade away in the coming weeks. 

Which brings us to today's quiz of the day. The NBA implemented a lottery system beginning with the 1985 draft. Since then, 39 players have gone No. 1 overall. So, with that in mind, how many of the top overall picks from the NBA's lottery era can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
