1. I think the NYK have filed a strong complaint on the Mavs the NBA can't ignore.
2. Therefore, I think the ruling will come after the lottery drawing.
3. If Mavs move up into the top 4 - the NBA will void the pick and Cuban will be suspended.
4. If Mavs stay at 10 - the NBA will void the pick. Mavs/NYK 2024 trade still applies.
5. It some team jumps the Mavs and NY gets the 11th pick - I think the Mavs will just be fined for tanking.
I think # 5 is the most likely outcome of this NBA Mavs tanking investigation.
I dont see them taking away a top 4 pick. Not out in the open.
Thats why you are correct, and option 5 is what will happen. Its the only option. They will rig the lottery so we get the 11th pick., This WILL happen.
