Trail Blazers seek favorable results in third consecutive shot at top draft pick: NBA draft lottery preview

The Portland Trail Blazers will take a third consecutive crack at securing the top pick in the NBA draft through the lottery process on Sunday at 2 p.m. in Chicago. The Blazers, to be represented at the lottery by point guard Scoot Henderson, have a 13.2% probability of landing the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NBA draft and a 50% chance of selecting in the top four. The unfavorable reality is that those odds come in a year when the pool of draft prospects is considered weak.
