NBA draft lottery

The NBA draft lottery is an yearly event held by the National Basketball Association (NBA), where the teams who’d missed the playoffs the previous year participate in a lottery procedure to determine the draft order from the NBA draft.

The lottery winner could find the first choice in the draft. The word»lottery pick» finds a draft pick whose position is determined through the lottery, while the non-playoff teams involved in the procedure are usually called»lottery groups »
Under the current rules, only the top four picks are decided by the lottery, and are picked from the 14 teams which do not make the playoffs.

After the top four positions are chosen (from the lottery slotting system), the rest of the first-round draft order is in inverse order of the win-loss record for the remaining groups, or the teams who initially held the lottery rights when they were traded. The lottery does not determine the draft order.
