NBA tiebreakers see one of Rockets' first-round picks fall in draft order

With the Rockets getting the Blazers' pick at 23rd from the trade that sent Robert Covington to Portland, the Rockets will have consecutive first-round picks, choosing with Portland's and Milwaukee's picks at 23rd and 24th, respectively.

The fate of the Rockets' own pick will be determined in the June 22 lottery. They have a 52.1 percent chance of the pick remaining in the top four. If it falls out of the top four, the pick would go to the Oklahoma City Thunder with the Rockets getting the Miami Heat's pick at No. 18.

The Rockets have a 14 percent chance of picking first, a 13.4 percent chance of picking second, a 12.7 percent chance of picking third and a 12 percent chance of picking fourth.
