The Washington Wizards bad luck has been put on full display over the last few years. From earning the No. 2 overall pick in arguably the weakest NBA Draft in years, to being snubbed of a top five pick as a whole in last offseason's NBA Draft Lottery despite being tied for the highest chances to earn the top pick, it's clear that the Wizards misfortune over the years has been largely due to the team's horrendous luck.
The Mavericks are considered a lock to take Duke forward Cooper Flagg with the first pick after winning May 12 draft lottery despite having only a 1.8 percent chance, the 11th-best odds in the 14-team lottery.
