With the 2009 NBA Draft complete, the Jazz are excited about landing New York's pick next June.

Utah owns New York's first round pick in 2010, and the selection is no longer protected. Conceivably, the Jazz could end up with the first overall pick if the Knicks miss the playoffs and win the lottery.

"We don't have any control over it," general manager Kevin O'Connor said. "I don't think the expectation should be that it's going to be a high lottery pick.

"We don't know what it's going to be," he added, "and until we do know ? obviously, that won't be until late in the season ? we'll treat it as we have: That it's an asset, and we'll wait and see where it's at."

Utah's first round pick will go to Minnesota via Philadelphia, unless the Jazz miss the postseason.
