Summary

NBA lottery reform passes with a 29-1 vote, ushering in the new 3-2-1 lottery format and reshaping draft strategy for teams across the league. Justin Garcia and Camille Davis analyze how these changes—limiting consecutive top picks for struggling teams and expanding the lottery to all 16 non-playoff teams—could impact small-market franchises like the Milwaukee Bucks. Is this the end of tanking, or will it simply make draft outcomes even more unpredictable?
