So because the lottery only determines the top 3 picks, technically every team has a chance to drop up to 3 spots if 3 teams behind them jump up. Since teams 2-4 have the biggest odds to win the first pick/jump into the top 3 other than Charlotte, their combined odds are why Charlotte has the highest
590:
The first 14 picks in the draft belong to teams that miss the playoffs; the order was determined through a lottery. The lottery determined the three teams that will obtain the first three picks on the draft. The remaining first-round picks and the second-round picks were assigned to teams in reverse

Although there is one (recent) oppose, I'm going to go ahead and promote. I read through the list, and I found it pretty clear in the sections mentioned that the reference in the text contained the data that was then presented in a list/table, without it being repeated in a ref. column or similar.
808:
I hope that helps. I know it's a confusing thing. I've never actually tried explaining it until now because I've never fully understood it, but working on this article has helped. Since 2019 the lottery changed the rules and the top 4 teams are selected in the lottery, with the top 3 worst records
904:
Done. Although the last one with the table I don't think I can change. From everything I've seen with tables like that for sports, both symbols are added but, the color used is whichever is the higher accomplishment. Unless you know how to make it half and half of both colors?
986:
Where is the sources for the "Draft lottery" table and "College underclassmen", "International players" and "Invited attendees" headings? As it stands now its quite difficult for the reader to know what references what. Maybe add a "Ref." column to the tables like this one:
615:
A player who has hired an agent will forfeit his remaining college eligibility, regardless of whether he is drafted. Also, while the CBA allows a player to withdraw from the draft twice, the NCAA mandates that a player who has declared twice loses his college
383:
Tables need row scopes on the "primary" column for each row, which in combination with column scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Row scopes can be added by adding
186:
This list is about the players who were selected in the 2012 NBA draft and the order in which they were selected. I started working on this a month ago to clean the article up, and I hope it's ready to become a featured list now. I used
363:
Tables need column scopes for all column header cells, which in combination with row scopes lets screen reader software accurately determine and read out the headers for each cell of a data table. Column scopes can be added by adding
988: 474:
I've made the changes to all tables except the draft lottery one because I'm not the best with tables and it's a different style than the others. I'm not sure where to add everything from your suggestions for that one. --
731:"The draft selections and transactions. Transactions consist of trades involving picks made on draft night or on a previous date." - is this needed? If it is, the first bit should be re-written to be a proper sentence 128: 352:
Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. Visual captions can be added by putting
728:"Of the players drafted, 30 are forwards, 21 are guards, and 9 are centers." - I would change this to the past tense, as I would imagine a substantial number of these players have now retired 741:"The New Orleans Hornets won the rights to the first overall selection with a 13.7% chance to win" - why did they have this very specific percentage chance to win? I don't understand this. 228: 609:
U.S. players who were at least one year removed from their high school graduation and have played minor-league basketball with a team outside the NBA are also automatically eligible.
786:, why do four teams apparently have a chance to gain each? How could Charlotte have had the highest chance of gaining pick four when they had already received pick two? -- 782:
Thanks for adding explanation to the lottery section but (and sorry if I am being unbelievably dumb) I still don't get parts of it. If the picks past the fourth are simply
738:
the first three picks on the draft." - not appropriate to use the future tense given that we are talking about a draft which took place more than a decade ago
407:
for example table code if this isn't clear. I don't return to these reviews until the nomination is ready to close, so ping me if you have any questions. --
744:
In fact I don't understand this whole section. What are "lottery chances"? Why Houston only have a chance of getting the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 14th picks?
40: 769:
I've addressed everything you've mentioned. Hopefully all the lottery confusion is cleared up now, but let me know if something is still unclear. --
396:(Looks like the "pick" column should be the header/primary, as its unique to each row). If the cell spans multiple rows with a rowspan, then use 436:
Also, for the !scope=row, do I do it for each individual "pick"? For now I just did it for the first pick just to see if I did it correctly. --

as the first line of the table code; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting

I don't know how many votes on average makes it ready to close, but are 3 supports good enough to get your vote one way or another?

I just removed the section for now. Maybe in the future someone will come across good sources with some of the players listed. --

I added a ref for the lottery odds, but the other sections are all cited clearly I feel in the prose of those sections.
991:? I mean, this is Knowledge (XXG). Its even more important that we show transparently what references what statement. -- 597:
The Charlotte Bobcats, who had the worst record and the biggest chance to win the lottery, won the second overall pick.
149: 247:
It still needs sourcing in this article (not least because it isn't sourced in the other article either......) --
