The Knicks won last night’s tiebreak drawing vs. Washington, meaning they will have one more ping-pong ball in the drum than the Wizards for the May 22 NBA Draft Lottery.

As the ninth seed, the Knicks will have 15 ping-pong balls out of 1,000, giving them just a 1.5 percent chance of winning the lottery and a 6.0 percent chance of winning a top-three pick.

The second-round order also was determined following the tiebreakers. With Denver winning the tiebreaker over Cleveland, the Knicks, who own the Nuggets’ second-round pick, will select 31st overall (the second pick of the second round). The Knicks also will select at No. 39.
