	NBA Draft Lottery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1986, many lottery teams had traded their first-round draft picks, and as a result, the top two teams in the Draft Lottery were playoff teams, with the eventual NBA champion Boston Celtics picking second, a pick (the late Len Bias) which would eventually haunt the franchise.
		The Philadelphia 76ers, who won the lottery on the draw from a trade with the then-San Diego Clippers in the late 1970s where the Clippers picked up Joe Bryant in return for the 1986 first-round pick, traded it to Cleveland afterwards.
		The lottery is conducted with witnesses verifying that all 14 balls are represented once as they are placed in the lottery machine.

		Since video lottery terminals were limited to licensed establishments selling liquor, and since there was a statutory limit of five machines per establishment, the court found that the video poker terminals did not constitute a casino.
		§4803.(g) defines a video lottery machine as “any machine in which bills, coins, or tokens are deposited in order to play a game of chance in which the results, including options available to the player, are randomly and immediately determined by the machine.
		The definition of a video lottery game is so broad that it can consist of games involving player choice so long as the player is given the signal as to which is the optimal choice based on probabilities of winning.

		In the event both machines break down, there is a power failure or another unforeseeable event, the balls will be drawn manually from a basketball which has been lopped in half.

	Official Opinions - OFFICIAL OPINION NO. 91-04, Validity of Video Lottery Legislation.
		The administration of the South Dakota Lottery was placed with the executive director, appointed by the Governor, confirmed by the Senate, and under the supervision of the South Dakota Lottery Commission.
		Legislation places restrictions on the amounts that can be wagered and won on a game; the placement of video lottery machines; the age limit and legal hours of operation for video lottery machines; and, penalties for tampering and intent to manipulate the operation of a machine.
		Though the legislative scheme is such that private individuals own the machines upon which the lotteries are played and the physical premises in which the machines are located, I nonetheless conclude the video lottery is owned by the State.

		When the lottery began, MVA members had obtained operator licenses and were ready to supply video lottery machines to licensed establishments located on the operators' well- established vending machine routes.
