The Dallas Mavericks leapfroged into the Top 4 after Luka Doncic disaster.

San Antonio , Atlanta and Chicago each stayed put at the bottom of the lottery.

The Raptors had free-fallen to nine from seven and Brooklyn went a couple spots to eight .

Philadelphia had done the unlikely and kept its pick, but entered Top 4 .

Social media was filled with claims the lottery was “rigged’s” but there are serious protocols.

The Thunder could really have used a cheap producer in the 7-9 area of this draft.

The Raptors wanted a player on par or better than Scottie Barnes or Brandon Ingram .

Brooklyn 's only option is to tank harder than anyone next year to get a franchise player with better lotto luck.
