"My pitch: The NBA needs to seriously consider implementing a rule that stipulates teams can only remain eligible to secure the highest possible odds to win the draft lottery if they win at least 27 games,"
"A 27-55 record means that the team in question has won a third of its games,"
"That would require teams that want to tank in search of their next Face of the Franchise to chase winning deeper into the season and maintain a higher level of competence across an 82-g"
Washington prioritizes developing its young core, playing prospects like Alex Sarr, Kyshawn George and rookie Tre Johnson regularly while not deliberately tanking. Head coach Brian Keefe emphasizes nightly attempts to win despite a 14-39 record. The team has been cautious about rushing newly acquired stars Trae Young and Anthony Davis back onto the court. The NBA commissioner has been tasked with addressing tanking. A proposed anti-tanking rule would require teams to win at least 27 games to remain eligible for the highest draft-lottery odds, intended to push teams to pursue wins deeper into the season and maintain competitiveness.
