Ed Peskowitz, part-owner of the Atlanta Hawks, represented the club at the lottery for the first time on Tuesday and he hopes that it is also his last time.

"This is my last time," Peskowitz said. "[Darn] right. It's disappointing when you don't get the No. 1 pick. Everybody who comes here wants to win. But [Hawks GM Billy Knight] really believes that this draft is deeper than people are giving it credit for being. So we're going to have a chance to get a really good player with the fifth pick."
