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:
“Thoroughly to unfold the labyrinths of the human mind is an arduous task....

—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“I suppose that one of the psychological principles of advertising is to so hammer the name of your product into the mind of the timid buyer that when he is confronted with a brusk demand for an order he can’t think of anything else to say, whether he wants it or not.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“In order to be somebody you have to hold even your shadow in high regard.”
