The NBA Draft lottery odds are now set, and three teams are tied with the best shot at securing the top pick this summer.
The Washington Wizards, Indiana Pacers and Brooklyn Nets all have a 14% shot at landing the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft this summer, the league announced on Monday afternoon. That came after the NBA broke six ties among teams with identical regular season records through a random drawing, which finalized the order for the first round of the draft.
