The odds for the remaining teams in the 14-team lottery decreases gradually after the top three, with approximately a 1%-2% difference between lottery teams.  The number of picks determined by the lottery is four (compared to three under the prior system). This means that the team with the worst record can receive no worse than the fifth pick, the team with the second-worst record no worse than the sixth pick, etc.
