The Houston Rockets are clinging to the top spot in the upcoming NBA Draft lottery. With 10 games remaining for the good guys, here are the standings.
Houston: 18 wins
Detroit: 19 wins
Orlando: 20 wins
Oklahoma City: 20 wins
The Thunder do play both Detroit and Orlando, so there are at least two wins remaining for those teams. But that might be it. OKC is on a 10-game losing streak and appears primed to lose out. Detroit’s only win in their last seven games came against Orlando.
