After the completion of the NBA Draft Lottery, the Denver Nuggets have retained the number seven overall pick in the upcoming 2015 NBA Draft on June 25th. The Nuggets entered the lottery slotted in the number seven position, with a 59.93% chance of staying put in that spot. It is the 15th time in the history of the lottery that the number seven pre-lottery slotted team has retained its position, most recently in 2012 by Golden State.
This is the fifth time in franchise history that Denver has retained their position in the lottery process. It is the first time in team history that they own the number seven selection.
