NBA lottery odds chart

The NBA lottery can be confusing. Since teams aren't awarded picks in reverse record order, a la NFL, keeping track of just what team could wind up selecting where can be tough.

So, I made a chart featuring each lottery-bound team, and each team's odds of landing in every possible selection spot. Enjoy:
