The Toronto Raptors will have the No. 5 pick in next month’s NBA draft.
The Raptors had the third-best chance of winning the draft lottery based on their third-worst record in the league before falling to fifth.
The Cleveland Cavaliers won the top pick.
Raptors president and general manager Bryan Colangelo, who agreed to a multi-year contract extension with Toronto earlier in the day, represented the team at the lottery.
The Raptors had a 15.6 per cent of winning the lottery after finishing 22-60 this past season.
The Raptors won the lottery in 2006, beating big odds to move up after finishing fifth-last in the league.
Colangelo used the No. 1 pick to draft Italian centre Andrea Bargnani.
The NBA draft is June 23 in Newark, N.J.
