Rigged or Lucky? Mavericks Beat 1.8% Odds to Win NBA Draft
And it’s Flag with the steel going on a fast break and he slams it home. New wins in again. This kid is a true two-way player. Yes, exactly what the league needs right now. No, Adam. We all know the Lakers need a new superstar right now. Don’t you worry, Rob. Here’s the plan. Flag makes his move. Flag short. Any chance you forgo the draft now and go back to Duke for one more year? No. It’s time to move on. Really? Even if the Wizards get the first pick? Yeah, well, the NBA is where the amazing happens. The first pick in the 2025 NBA draft goes to the Dallas Mavericks. [Music]
After a controversial trade that sent their biggest star away for an injured AD, the Dallas Mavericks had only a 1.8% chance in the 2025 NBA Draft lottery. But somehow they pulled off the impossible and won the #1 pick. Was it pure luck, or is there more to this story than meets the eye?

First
Rigged cause after they do the trade the NBA feels bad but this is just my personal opinion
The Mavs trading away Luka Doncic then getting 1st pick has me convinced that karma does not exist
Fourth
This was still less rigged than Super Bowl 58 between the Chiefs and the 49ers!
NBA = CIA
Hello
LWS GO

NBA is Where the amazing happens 😂
Rigged the hornets needed him
The NBA: "Where r̶i̶g̶g̶e̶d̶ AMAZING happens" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
As a longtime nba fan this is the truest and funniest thing I've seen in a while
I still think it would be way to funny if Flagg waits another year.
Coop is going to be a massive fail. Just like Zion
