Spurs lose lottery tie-breaker to Rockets, finish with 3rd worst NBA record

The San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets tied for the second worst record in the NBA at 22-60 in the 2022-23 season. On April 17th, Houston won a coin-flip that guarantees them the draft odds that go with the 29th worst team, including a top-six pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. The Spurs will be considered the third worst team in the NBA, and will have a top-seven pick in the draft.

San Antonio, Houston and Detroit all still have equal chances at the #1 pick, as well as getting a top-four selection. If the three of them don’t select in the first four picks, the Spurs would slide down to 7.
