2018 NBA Draft Lottery Order Announced Following Friday Tiebreakers

Adam WellsApr 13, 2018

The NBA has announced the results of five tiebreakers to determine the 2018 draft order for teams that finished the regular season with identical records.ย  ย  ย  ย 

ESPN's Jonathan Givonyย passed along the updated order for all 30 teams Friday:

The official order of the top 14 teams will be determined May 15 at the draft lottery in Chicago.

The Dallas Mavericks and Atlanta Hawks, who both finished 24-58, had the most significant impact at the top of the draft at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, on June 21. The Mavs now have theย third-bestย odds to win the lottery at 13.8 percent, followed by the Hawks at 13.7 percent.ย ย 

The only other lottery tiebreaker involved Sacramento and the Chicago Bulls, who got the No. 6 overall pick over the Kings. Both teams have anย identicalย 5.3 percent chance to select first.ย 

The biggest cluster involved selections Nos. 20-23, with four teams having 48-34 records. The Oklahoma City Thunder won the tiebreaker to earn the 20th draft choice, though that pick belongs to the Minnesota Timberwolves.ย
