The WNBA's two-season approach to draft lottery odds offers a more equitable system than the NBA's single-season method. Teams with sustained struggles like the Wizards deserve better draft positions to genuinely rebuild rather than rewarding teams experiencing temporary setbacks or intentionally tanking.
• NBA currently bases draft lottery odds on just the previous season's performance
• WNBA uses the previous two seasons' records to determine lottery odds
• Washington Wizards finished second-worst in consecutive seasons but only received the sixth pick
• Two-season approach would make tanking much more difficult and less appealing
• 76ers receiving the third pick despite having Joel Embiid raises questions about equitable distribution
• Teams genuinely struggling for multiple years (Wizards, Hornets, Jazz) would benefit most from a two-season system
• Analysis of how WNBA teams' draft positions would change under different systems
• A longer evaluation period ensures help goes to teams that truly need it
