Order
The natural drafting order is determined by the teams' winning percentages from the previous season, with records from the PBA Philippine Cup having heavier weight; the team with the two worst percentages participate in the draft lottery, while the team with third worst winning percentage picking third, and the team with best winning percentage picking last in the first round. In the second round, the natural drafting order is followed, the team with the worst winning percentage will pick first then the second worst will pick second. The worst and second worst team will change places in the following rounds.
The drafting order is also subject to change if a team deals their draft picks in trades.

Famous quotes containing the word order:

—Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
“To write is to make oneself the echo of what cannot cease speaking—and since it cannot, in order to become its echo I have, in a way, to silence it. I bring to this incessant speech the decisiveness, the authority of my own silence.”
—Maurice Blanchot (b. 1907)
