Is the power ranking also the final seeding for teams outside playoffs? So I have tie-breaker against Brooklyn for 4th last?

The list of lottery teams is probably ordered by those same tie-breakers that would determine the final standings for playoff teams. Probably doesn't need to be said, but the final seeding for teams outside the playoffs doesn't necessarily determine draft order... just draft order probabilities. The draft lottery should be done pretty soon and then you'll know for sure how that tie-breaker played out.

So you and Brooklynn will have the same chance to get the #1 pick. If you look here it says 4th place gets 119 chances and 5th place gets 88 chances, so you add them together 119 + 88 and get 207. So you each get 103.5 balls. However, you can't split a ball so a coin flip has been tossed and Brooklynn wins the tie breaker. So Brooklyn gets 104 balls, and you get 103. Colin LoftinMilt NewtonThe same thing happens for you, you each are tied so have a total of 15 balls between you, however because that cannot be split evenly, a coin flip has been tossed and Milt is the winner, so Milt will receive 8 balls in the lottery and Colin will receive 7. The results of the Draft lottery will be posted day by day along with the playoff games for the next couple weeks.

Dammit. A projected 11th pick is not bad though.
