The teams that don’t qualify for the play-in tournament (or, obviously, the playoffs), will receive three lottery balls each … except, the three teams finishing with the worst regular season record will be “draft relegated” and only get two balls apiece. These teams can now fall as far as 12 (the reforms that started in 2019 had limited those teams to only being able to fall four spots and all three had equal 14% odds at landing the first pick from 25% before that). Now it’s down to 5.4% each, yikes (the team’s 4-10 in the reverse standings will be at 8.1% each).
