The NBA Draft Lottery is to take place on May 30th and every one knows, except Thomas Robinson, that Anthony Davis will be the #1 pick in the NBA Draft.
Here are the chances for each team that did not make the NBA Playoffs have of getting the #1 pick.
[LEFT][COLOR=#000000][FONT=Verdana]Team rankings based on standings as of the end of the regular season. If teams finish the season with the same record, they are given the average between the two. If three teams ties, add the 3 odds together then divide by 3. The draft lottery drawing only determines the top 3 positions, the remaining 4-14 picks are the inverse order of the final standing for the non-playoff teams. [/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT]
