The Cleveland Cavaliers have won the lottery again. With a 1.7% chance of winning the NBA draft lottery it seemed very unlikely, but for the third time in four years they've struck lucky. With the No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft, who will the Cavaliers draft? The heavy favourites are the highly expected of trio in Andrew Wiggins, Joel Embiid and Jabari Parker, but could the Cavaliers trade the pick, or use it on a surprise player?

It would seem a dumb move to do anything other than select one of the previously mentioned trio, but the Cavaliers general manager David Griffin moved quickly to suggest the Cavaliers have options. He said "I think it's not necessarily limited to three names that are more highly hyped," He continued "We've got to do a more thorough evaluation of all of the guys to know that we're not doing something too quickly. When you're looking at the guys who have all the hype they have that because of their upside and athleticism. There's more to it than just those three guys that people talk about."

Andrew Wiggins and Jabari Parker have for a long while been tipped to go No.1. Both players have the potential to become Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony type players, which is a gap the Cavaliers have needed to fill for so long now. Also, Joel Embiid could provide them with a similar type player to Dwight Howard, which would solve their positions at center. The Cavaliers cannot mess this up, unless they trade the pick, which has already been suggested. Perhaps for a star like Kevin Love.

Who should the Cavaliers draft from this exciting trio?
