Miraculously, the Cleveland Cavaliers have another tough decision to make. But after winning the NBA's draft lottery Tuesday for the third time in four years, they'll take it.

The draft is June 26, and what the Cavs decide to do with the No. 1 overall pick could impact the entire summer.

The Cavs could keep it and select a prized prospect in what is considered a deep and talented field. Or they could trade the pick and bring in a veteran star to pair with Kyrie Irving.

Either way, here's an early mock of how things might shake out:

Pick	Team	Player	The skinny
1.	Cleveland Cavaliers	Jabari Parker 6-8, SF, Duke	Widely considered the most NBA-ready prospect. Possesses plenty of polish and can score from inside or out. Scouts love his intelligence and winning presence.
2.	Milwaukee Bucks	Andrew Wiggins 6-8, F/G, Kansas	Incredible athlete who made great strides late in the year. Considered the best wing defender available. Capable 20-point scorer at the NBA level.
3.	Philadelphia 76ers	Joel Embiid 7-0, C, Kansas	Raw offensively, but can change the course of a game with his defense. Imagine a frontline of Embiid and Nerlens Noel. Troublesome back is a bit of a concern.
4.	Orlando Magic	Julius Randle 6-9, PF, Kentucky	Reminds some scouts of Atlanta big man Al Horford. Very strong and skilled underneath. Talent evaluators feel he'll have a long and prosperous career.
5.	Utah Jazz	Dante Exum 6-6, PG, Australia	Athletic with a strong handle and good size. Can play either guard spot. Not much is known about his weaknesses. Considered a bit of a risk.
6.	Boston Celtics	Aaron Gordon 6-9, F, Arizona	High-energy guy who just wins. Plays with a lot of passion and is perhaps the most athletic big in the draft. A little ways to go offensively.
7.	Los Angeles Lakers	Marcus Smart 6-4, PG, Oklahoma State	Tough kid with a strong handle. Can score in a number of ways. Reminds some of the Suns' Eric Bledsoe. Would likely be a top-three pick in most years.
8.	Sacramento Kings	Noah Vonleh 6-10, PF, Indiana	Skilled big man with nice range on his jumper. Not a great athlete and perhaps still a little soft. Just 18 years old with a big upside.
9.	Charlotte Hornets (from Detroit)	Doug McDermott 6-8, SF, Creighton	Incredibly gifted offensively, scores in a number of ways. Cerebral all-around player and a decent defender. One scout called him a poor man's Jabari Parker.
10.	Philadelphia 76ers (from New Orleans)	Gary Harris 6-4, SG, Michigan State	Can hit shots from anywhere and plays 100 percent at all times. Lockdown defender in college. A little small for the two-guard spot.
11.	Denver Nuggets	Zach LaVine 6-5, G, UCLA	Another strong ball-handler for his size. Stock rose after impressive showing at Chicago combine. Very heady and can put the ball in the basket.
12.	Orlando Magic (from New York via Denver)	Tyler Ennis 6-2, PG, Syracuse	A point guard in the truest sense. Always looking for the open man and keeps the ball moving. As an added bonus, can score when called upon. Big-game player.
13.	Minnesota Timberwolves	James Young 6-6, SF, Kentucky	Perhaps the purest shooter in the draft. Dynamic athlete who can get to the rim. Lefty who supposedly can't go right.
14.	Phoenix Suns	Adreian Payne 6-10, PF, Michigan State	Can mix it up in the paint and bury shots from NBA 3-point range. Not overly consistent, but is among top two or three bigs available when he's on.
15.	Atlanta Hawks	Dario Saric 6-10, F, Croatia	Refined in every area. Could go higher if he makes it clear he's leaving Europe.
16.	Chicago Bulls (from Charlotte)	T.J. Warren 6-8, SF, N.C. State	Scrappy player with strong mid-range game. Not a great athlete.
17.	Boston Celtics (from Brooklyn)	Nik Stauskas 6-6, SG, Michigan	Outstanding shooter who can potentially play the point at times. No one in draft is more lethal coming off a screen.
18.	Phoenix Suns (from Washington)	Rodney Hood 6-8, F/G, Duke	Swingman who can fill it up fast. Needs to put on some muscle.
19.	Chicago Bulls	Elfrid Payton 6-4, PG, Louisiana-Lafayette	Great length and the type of relentless defender coach Tom Thibodeau covets. Could be a steal this late.
20.	Toronto Raptors	K.J. McDaniels 6-6, SF, Clemson	Slasher who can get to the basket. Not a great shooter, but finds ways to score.
21.	Oklahoma City Thunder (from Dallas via Houston & LA Lakers)	Cleanthony Early 6-7, F, Wichita State	Winner who does everything well. Underrated rebounder, plays with fire.
22.	Memphis Grizzlies	P.J. Hairston 6-5, SG, North Carolina/D-League	Explosive scorer who is physical for a guard. Always in attack mode.
23.	Utah Jazz (from Golden State)	Kyle Anderson 6-9, F, UCLA	Outstanding ball-handler and passer. Slow afoot. Unique set of skills for a big man.
24.	Charlotte Hornets (from Portland)	C.J. Wilcox 6-5, SG, Washington	Remarkable perimeter shooter. Could offer instant offense off the bench.
25.	Houston Rockets	Jerami Grant 6-8, SF, Syracuse	Great athlete with suspect outside shot. Strong defender.
26.	Miami Heat	Jusuf Nurkic 6-11, C, Bosnia	Intelligent player, skilled big man. A little soft, a little out of shape.
27.	Phoenix Suns (from Indiana)	Shabazz Napier 6-1, PG, Connecticut	Small frame but huge heart. Highly skilled. Plays with an edge.
28.	Los Angeles Clippers	Jordan Adams 6-5, SG, UCLA	Best player available. Offensively gifted. Could go higher.
29.	Oklahoma City Thunder	Clint Capela 6-11, PF, Switzerland	Fantastic athlete with size. Can disappear, but pretty good when focused.
30.	San Antonio Spurs	Mitch McGary 6-10, PF/C, Michigan	Plays hard, plays smart, passes and shoots very well. Back surgery a major red flag.
