2023 NBA Draft Lottery: Pistons, Rockets, and Spurs Tied for Best Odds at Victor Wembanyama
Equal Chances for Top Pick
The NBA Draft Lottery 2023 has revealed that the Detroit Pistons, Houston Rockets, and San Antonio Spurs all have an equal 14% chance of securing the No. 1 pick in the upcoming draft. This coveted spot would give them a prime opportunity to select the highly anticipated French prospect Victor Wembanyama.
New Draft Lottery System
This year's lottery introduces a new system designed to level the playing field for teams with the worst records. In previous years, the team with the worst record had a higher chance of winning the top pick, but now the three teams with the lowest records all have the same odds.
The following table illustrates the likelihood of each of the 14 participating teams winning the lottery:
| Rank | Team | Odds |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pistons | 14% |
| 2 | Rockets | 14% |
| 3 | Spurs | 14% |
| 4 | Indiana Pacers | 12.5% |
