B/R AM: The Pistons Are Cursed

Samuel Evers
May 13, 2024

The NBA draft lottery was yesterday.

It turned into a Pistons troll-fest.

Despite the NBA's worst record and a 28-game losing streak, the Pistons wound up with the fifth pick ... again. (Full order here.)

  • That's now three years in a row Detroit's had the best odds to get No. 1, only to end up with No. 5
  • So, a 54-192 record over three years without Wemby, Paolo Banchero or a top 4 pick to show for it

Cursed.

Other lottery notables:

  • The Spurs grabbed Nos. 8 and 4
  • The Rockets, via the Nets pick from the James Harden trade, jumped up to No. 3 
  •  The Hawks won the lottery despite a 3% chance
