The Philadelphia 76ers are looking to get to the finish line in what has been a disappointing 2024-25 season. This was supposed to be a season where they get over the hump in the Eastern Conference and make a deep run into the playoffs, but they were unable to do so as they were with a ton of injuries.
There are four games left on the docket as they begin a quick 2-game road trip on Monday when they take on the Miami Heat. The Sixers are just looking to develop their youngsters while the Heat are currently fighting for positioning in the play-in. Currently the No. 10 seed, Miami is only a game back of the Chicago Bulls for the No. 9 seed and a home game for the play-in.
With that being said, here is a look at the lottery standings as Philadelphia looks to keep its top 6 protected pick:
