2021 NBA draft picks order finalized

The 2021 NBA draft order is almost set. The NBA completed a series of coin flips to break ties from the regular season, establishing the full order of picks 1-60 heading into the draft lottery, set for June 22 on ESPN.

The lottery will determine the top four picks in the draft, with each of the bottom three teams in the league — the Houston Rockets, Detroit Pistons and Orlando Magic — having an equal 14% chance of landing the No. 1 overall pick. This will be a critical draft lottery not only because of the talent at the top, with five potential superstars leading this draft class, but also because of trades of protected picks that might or might not convey, depending on how the lottery goes.
