The first Draft Lottery was held in 1995. Since then, there have been 17 standard lotteries (excluding 2005, which was conducted differently).
Past lottery results:
- 1st: 1996, 1997, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010 (35.3%)
- 2nd: 2012 (5.9%)
- 3rd: 1998, 2001, 2002, 2004 (23.5%)
- 4th: 2003 (5.9%)
- 5th: 2000, 2007 (11.8%)
- 6th: Never (0%)
- 7th: 1995 (5.9%)
- 8th: 1999, 2011 (11.8%)
I have a good feeling for finishing with the 6th worst record.
