NBA announces 2026 Draft Lottery team representatives, including Vince Carter for the Nets
The NBA announced each representative for the 14 teams in Sunday’s NBA Draft Lottery in Chicago. Those on stage are a mix of former team greats and current NBA stars, along with less exciting front-office executives and, in one case, a family member of team ownership.
The representatives attending the lottery are as follows, listed in alphabetical order by team:
Atlanta Hawks: Onsi Saleh, general manager
Brooklyn Nets: Vince Carter, team legend
Charlotte Hornets: Kon Knueppel
Chicago Bulls: Toni Kukoč, special advisor to team president and CEO
Dallas Mavericks: Rolando Blackman, team legend
Golden State Warriors: Larry Harris, ***** istant GM/director of player personnel
Indiana Pacers: T.J. McConnell
Memphis Grizzlies: Tayshaun Prince, vice president of basketball affairs
Miami Heat: Alonzo Mourning, VP of player programs
Milwaukee Bucks: Mallory Edens, team ownership
Oklahoma City Thunder: Nick Collison, special ***** istant to GM
Sacramento Kings: Scott Perry, GM
Utah Jazz: Keyonte George
Washington Wizards: John Wall, team legend
Some might raise an eyebrow at Vince Carter representing the Nets as a team legend. However, among the eight teams he played for during his Hall of Fame career, his second-longest stint was with the Nets, who were located in New Jersey during his five seasons with the team.
Carter also averaged 23.6 points per game in New Jersey, just higher than the 23.4 he averaged for the Toronto Raptors.
