The Dallas Mavericks land the 2025 NBA Draft Lottery with 1.8% odds, the 4th-lowest to win the drawing since it was instituted in 1985.

Three months after the most stunning, incomprehensible trade in NBA history sent Luka Dončić from the Dallas Mavericks to the Los Angeles Lakers, the Mavs cashed in on a 1.8 percent (one. point. eight. percent.) chance to land the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.

The Inquirer was one of 14 media outlets inside the drawing room, where assistant general manager Ned Cohen watched the Sixers move up to the third pick.
