The Brooklyn Nets produced the worst record in the NBA regular season at 20-62. On the other hand, Boston Celtics own the right to swap picks this season. It’s all because of a draft night trade in 2013 in which Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett were involved.
Also, the Los Angeles (LA) Lakers are in danger and they might lose their picks to the Philadelphia 76ers due to their regular season record of 25-56. It will all depend on the ping pong balls if they drop LA out of the top 3.

How does It work?
With 14 non-playoff teams participating in the lottery, 14 ping-pong balls numbered 1-14 are placed in a machine. The balls are mixed for 20 seconds before the first one is drawn. The remaining balls are then mixed for 10 seconds before the second one is drawn. This process continues until four balls have been drawn to create a four-digit combination to determine the No. 1 pick.
There are 1,001 total combinations, with one of those combinations thrown out and the other 1,000 distributed among the teams. NBA Draft 2017 is scheduled to be conducted on June 22, Tuesday at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, USA.
