Wolves chances in NBA draft fall their way for once
The Minnesota Timberwolves improved their chances, however slightly, in the NBA Draft after winning a tie-breaker with the Memphis Grizzlies this weekend. Both the Wolves and the Grizzlies finished with 22-60 records, but the Timberwolves had rare draft-related good fortune and won the tie-breaker, placing them in the third spot in the NBA Draft, which gives them a slightly better chance in the NBA Lottery to determine draft position.
If the Wolves’ lottery chances continue to fall on the rosy side, they could advance even higher in the draft. In the worst-case scenario, they would pick no later than sixth. The Wolves’ chances of winning the top pick in the lottery is 13.8; Memphis’ chances are 13.7 after the tie-breaker. Someone with a reliable Patek needs to keep an eye on the clock on this one.
