The Great NBA Tank-a-Thon of 2018

With so many bad teams competing for the worst record in the league, 2018 might see the greatest tanking race in NBA history.

While most NBA fans will spend the final month of the regular season anxiously watching the logjam that is seeds 3-10 in the Western Conference, the bottom of the league will have just as much excitement; excitement in a depressing, shameless tanking sort of way.

There are currently eight teams within three games of each other, all competing for the league’s worst record. With this season being the last with the NBA’s current lottery structure, all eight are trying to ensure they have the most ping-pong balls this summer.
