NBA Draft Tiebreakers: Full result of the drawings, current draft order, all teams & key details

On Monday, the NBA draft tiebreakers were determined to finalize the lottery odds for teams with identical regular-season records. As a result, fans now have an idea of the likelihood that one of the bottom 14 teams—or, perhaps, their trade partners—will get their hands on the No. 1 pick.

In the drawings conducted at the Secaucus, New Jersey, office of the NBA, tiebreakers were also determined for the remaining 16 teams that made it to the playoffs. Consequently, the draft order from the middle to the end of the first round has now been set.

Current draft order and lottery odds after NBA draft tiebreakers

The final order for the first round of the 2025 NBA draft will be determined at the NBA draft lottery on May 12. For now, here is the draft order based on win-loss records and the tiebreakers.

Draft lottery teams

Current position in draft order	Team	Record	Odds to get no. 1 pick
1	Utah Jazz	17-65	14.0%
2	Washington Wizards	18-64	14.0%
3	Charlotte Hornets	19-63	14.0%
4	New Orleans Pelicans	21-61	12.5%
5	Philadelphia 76ers	24-58	10.5%
6	Brooklyn Nets	26-56	9.0%
7	Toronto Raptors	30-52	7.5%
8	San Antonio Spurs	34-48	6.0%
9	Phoenix Suns (to Houston Rockets via Brooklyn Nets)	36-46	3.8%
10	Portland Trail Blazers	36-46	3.7%
11	Dallas Mavericks	39-43	1.8%
12	Chicago Bulls	39-43	1.7%
13	Sacramento Kings	40-42	0.8%
14	Atlanta Hawks (to San Antonio Spurs)	40-42	0.7%

As per draft lottery rules, the bottom three teams in terms of win-loss record are all designated 14.0% lottery odds to get the No. 1 pick. This year, those three teams are the Utah Jazz (17-65), Washington Wizards (18-64) and Charlotte Hornets (19-63).

This, of course, does not guarantee that the No. 1 pick this year—presumably Duke star Cooper Flagg—will land with any of those three teams. Just last year, the Atlanta Hawks had a pre-draft lottery position of 10th, giving them lottery odds of 3.0%. As improbable as it was for the Hawks to hit the jackpot, they ended up securing the first pick, which they used to select Zaccharie Risacher.
