The final odds for the 2023 NBA Draft Lottery are set via the end of the 2022-23 regular season, with the addition of a few tiebreakers.

It came right down to the final day for many, with even the some top three teams grappling for better position on Sunday.

Here is the final regular season standings and subsequent 2023 NBA Draft odds:

1. Detroit Pistons, 17-64

The Pistons are officially locked into the top draft odds.

After losing former No. 1 pick Cade Cunningham for the season due to injury, Detroit will now look to add to their core with what they hope will be another top selection. Regardless, they won’t fall below five, meaning their season likely was organizationally a success.

T2. San Antonio Spurs, 21-60

With a loss to the Mavericks on Sunday, San Antonio had a chance to clinch the second-best odds. Instead, they had a 42-14 first quarter and coasted to the win. 

Regardless, they'll have a coin flip's shot at beating out Houston for the odds.

T2. Houston Rockets, 21-60

Houston, winners of four of their last five games, finally found their groove as the season ended.

Now, they'll enter the postseason with either the second or third best odds, depending on the tie breaker. Regardless, they'll have the 14 percent chance at landing Victor Wembanyama.

4. Charlotte Hornets, 27-55

5. Portland Trail Blazers, 33-49

6. Orlando Magic, 34-48

T7. Indiana Pacers, 35-47

T7. Washington Wizards, 35-47

9. Utah Jazz, 37-45

10. Dallas Mavericks, 38-44

T11. Oklahoma City Thunder, 40-42

T11. Chicago Bulls, 40-42

T13. Toronto Raptors, 41-41

T13. Minnesota Timberwolves, 41-41
