Even with consistently poor records, the Detroit Pistons secure their third consecutive #5 pick in the lottery

Although the Detroit Pistons have struggled in recent seasons, finishing at the bottom of the standings for three years in a row, they are once again slated to receive the #5 pick in the NBA draft lottery. Their season records include 14 victories in 2023-2024, 17 wins in 2022-2023, and 23 wins during the 2021-2022 campaign. This pattern of performance and draft positioning continues to spark debate among fans and analysts about the team’s long-term strategy and potential for growth.

lol i dont get it, they always seem to be in the same old cycle. got the same draft pick year after year but never seem to capitalize on it. maybe they need more than luck to turn things around.
