Jay-Z will be at the NBA's Draft Lottery on ESPN at 8 p.m. ET, but don't expect him to perform. He'll be representing the New Jersey Nets.

As a part owner of the Nets, Jay-Z will accompany 14 other crappy teams live before the Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons square off for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals.

The Nets only have a 1.1 percent chance of grabbing the No. 1 pick in the draft, but the Jigga Man hopes he can bring some luck to the podium.

“This is very exciting and I hope my nickname "Lucky Lefty’ holds up," he said.
