SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 Sports) - The Jazz chances of getting Golden State's 2012 first round draft pick just got a lot worse.

The Warriors won a tiebreaking coin toss with Toronto today and will be slotted as 7th overall selection in the NBA Draft. The Warriors still could move lower after the draft lottery is conducted May 30th.

If Golden State's pick is 8th or lower, it will be sent to Utah based on a trade from 2008. But if the Warriors land a top-7 selection, a condition kicks in that allows them to keep the selection and send their 2013 pick to Utah.

The Jazz now have a 27.5 percent chance of getting Golden State's pick. As of now, the Jazz own only a 2nd round pick, the 47th overall.

Golden State has a 12.6 percent chance of moving up into the top three, including a 3.6 percent chance of landing the top pick. There is nearly a 60 percent chance the Warriors will stay at number 7.
