Pistons likely to receive No. 5, No. 6 or No. 7 pick in NBA Draft
By Dan Feldman
I consider these NBA lottery odds the most accurate, because they account for not only how likely each seed in the lottery is to receive each pick, but how likely each team is to to finish as each seed. The latter is a bit more difficult to estimate, but huge thanks to Kevin Pelton for providing his computerized projections.
