The Phoenix Suns have lost 14 straight games to fall to 11-47 on the season
The skid has put them just a half-game behind the New York Knicks (10-45) for the worst record in the NBA.
The Cleveland Cavaliers (11-45) are a half-game behind the Suns.
Beginning with this draft, the NBA will change the lottery odds (the bottom three teams will all have an equal 14 percent chance of winning the top pick) and increase the number of teams selected in the lottery from three to four.
The worst regular-season team can pick no worse than fifth.
