Two Mega Millions players win $2 million prizes. Where in US were the tickets sold?

Two Mega Millions tickets sold in Delaware and Tennessee just missed the $59 million jackpot but won $2 million prizes, lottery officials said.

The tickets matched five winning numbers and the Megaplier, but not the Mega Ball, in the drawing Friday, Jan. 31, the national Mega Millions site said.

Nobody won the grand prize, which rises to an estimated $77 million, with a cash option of approximately $34.8 million, for the next drawing Tuesday, Feb. 4, the site said.

The winning numbers were 9, 28, 48, 56 and 63 with a Mega Ball of 2, the lottery said. The Megaplier multiplier was 2x.

Nearly 390,000 other tickets sold in the United States won prizes ranging from $2 to $20,000 in the drawing, the lottery said.

The Mega Millions jackpot was last hit Jan. 17, when an Arizona player won the $112 million grand prize, lottery officials said.
