The Odds for the Pacers to Get a Top 3 Pick in the 2015 NBA Draft by Jared Wade

For the first time in five years, the Indiana Pacers will be in the lottery of the NBA Draft. That means, in theory, they have a ping-pong-ball’s shot in of hell of getting the number-one overall pick.

Such an outcome — or falling anywhere in the top three — could be franchise-altering. But the much more likely result (the 91% likelihood) is that they will get the 11th overall pick.

Larry Bird will be representing the team during the ping-pong ball drawing, which as Scott Agness of Vigilant Sports explains, will be held on May 19 in New York.
