ð The Dallas Mavericks won the 2025 NBA Draft lottery, jumping 10 spots to land the No. 1 overall pick.
ð The win has sparked controversy over the fairness of the draft lottery system.
ð NBA Commissioner Adam Silver defended the system, stating that it is designed to disincentivize teams from tanking.
ð The worst team in the league still had only a 14% chance of winning the lottery.
ð The Mavericks' win was a result of their own efforts to win games, rather than tanking.
