Summary
The NBA just approved a major lottery overhaul to crack down on tanking, shifting odds so bottom teams don’t automatically land top picks—potentially reshaping draft trade value for years to come. For the Miami Heat, immediate pick-trading is blocked by a protected pick owed to Charlotte, but the long-term impact could be huge: under the new “three-two-one” system, even playoff losers get a shot at the top pick, making future draft assets more valuable and forcing teams to play harder all season—or face steep penalties.
