Jackpot Grows After Another Drawing Ends Without a Winner

Players of Mega Millions have been trying for a $368 million jackpot on June 5. Players had to have all 5 white numbers and the Mega Ball to win the top prize. The winning numbers were 13, 30, 50, 52, and 66. The gold Mega Ball readied itself: 2. There was no single ticket that was exactly the same as the winning ticket. This resulted in a continued rise in the jackpot.

The prize has now reached $392 million — with a cash option worth $173.3 million. The next drawing is scheduled for June 9 at 11 p.m. Eastern Time. The growing jackpot has again placed Mega Millions in the spotlight. Every rollover brings more attention as players wait for a winning ticket to appear.

Iowa Player Lands a Major Prize

Although nobody won the jackpot, several players secured significant payouts. One player in Iowa matched all five white numbers. That result earned a Match 5 prize worth $2 million. Several other winners also collected notable prizes:

  • Four players won $20,000 each.

  • Two players won $30,000 through a 3x multiplier.

  • One player secured $100,000 with a 10x multiplier.

These prizes may not match the jackpot's size. Nevertheless, they still represent life-changing sums for many winners. The Iowa ticket stood out among the drawing's strongest results. It came close to capturing the game's biggest reward.

Waiting for the Third Jackpot Winner of 2026

So far, Mega Millions has awarded only two jackpots this year. Both winning tickets appeared during March. The first jackpot went to a player in Illinois. Subsequently, another player in Ohio captured a $60 million top prize.

The gap has created extra attention around Mega Millions. Each rollover raises the prize and builds anticipation before the next drawing. Beyond the jackpot race, secondary prizes continue rewarding players across the country. More recently, a player in Florida collected a $4 million Match 5 prize.

Attention Turns to the Next Drawing

The next drawing arrives with nearly $400 million available. That figure alone may attract many additional ticket sales. A future winner could choose the full annuity option or take a lump-sum payment. Those decisions often become part of the story after a jackpot lands.

Hence, all eyes now turn to the upcoming drawing — and whether someone finally claims the growing prize. Until then, the jackpot remains in play. A third Mega Millions jackpot winner for 2026 still awaits.
