A new lottery format didn’t bring any change in luck for the Timberwolves.
Once again, the Wolves failed to move up in the lottery and will pick 11th in this year’s draft, which takes place June 20.
This was the first draft that took place under revamped rules and odds the league adopted in 2017. It flattened the odds at the top of the lottery — the worst three teams each had a 14% chance at the top pick — and gave better odds for teams toward the back end of the lottery to move up.
Under the old rules, the worst team had a 25% chance of landing the top pick.
