The 2024 NBA Draft Lottery is now less than a week away. The Detroit Pistons have a lot on the line, holding the league’s worst record, top lottery odds and a guaranteed top-five pick.
Top lottery odds don’t mean much any longer, as they only provide a 14% shot at the No. 1 overall pick. Plus, each of the three worst teams in the league share the same chance at the winning combination.
Nevertheless, someone’s going to win the lottery. Why not the Pistons? Especially after slipping and picking at No. 5 overall in each of the past two years.
