The winning white ball numbers for the drawing were 4-24-34-45-57, and the Mega Ball was 19. The Megaplier, which multiplies non-jackpot winnings, was three.

The winner matched all five of the white numbers drawn, but not the Mega Ball number. The second-tier prize amount for matching the five white balls is $1 million, and the Megaplier tripled the amount. 

No one won the jackpot for that drawing. In fact, no one has won the Mega Millions jackpot since April 18. The current estimated annuitized jackpot is at $343 million.

Drawings are every Tuesday and Friday night.
