The 2011 NBA draft lottery has been set and after a long-awaited process, the Cleveland Cavaliers look like they came out as the big winners.

Cleveland won the draft lottery and will be awarded the No. 1 pick in this summer's NBA draft.

The last time Dan Gilbert's club had the No. 1 pick was in 2003, when they selected a guy by the name of LeBron James.

While there isn't any type of player in this year's draft who is of the same caliber as James, there are some very good prospects who have the potential to turn into franchise pieces for the Cavs. Guys like Kyrie Irving (Duke), Derrick Williams (Arizona) and Brandon Knight (Kentucky) all look like players whose games will transition nicely to the NBA.

So with that said, who will Cleveland choose with that No. 1 pick? How else will the rest of the draft play out after that?

Stay tuned right here as I take you through my complete 2011 NBA mock draft.
