Mallory Edens will return to the NBA draft lottery stage this month, representing the Milwaukee Bucks, even as her father is reportedly the target of an alleged $1 billion blackmail scheme.
The New York Post reported that Edens, who has served as the Bucks’ lottery representative in the past, is scheduled to take the podium again when the league conducts its annual drawing. Her appearance coincides with revelations that her father is the alleged victim of a massive extortion plot valued at $1 billion.
Details of the investigation have not been publicly disclosed, and no charges connected to the scheme have been announced. The Bucks have not commented on whether the situation will affect Edens’ role at the event.
The NBA draft lottery is set for mid-May, determining the order of the first 14 selections in the upcoming draft.
