WNBA Draft Lottery: How Sky Gave Wings Prime Paige Bueckers Position

WNBA Draft Lottery: How Sky Gave Wings Prime Paige Bueckers Position

Last Friday, the Dallas Wings announced their hiring of Curt Miller (who was the Los Angeles Sparks' head coach before "mutually parting ways" with them after the 2024 season) as their new Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations and General Manager. While this marks an intriguing change for the Wings' front office, basketball fans found it interesting how Miller's odds of drafting Paige Bueckers shifted when going from the Sparks to the Wings. Given that the Sparks had the WNBA's worst record in 2024, this means they should have the best chances to secure the No. 1 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft (which is expected to be Bueckers), correct?
