NBA teams are lining up from near and far just for the chance to be in position to possibly draft Victor Wembanyama, the 7-foot-4 French phenom who right now looks like the clear No. 1 prospect in the 2023 NBA Draft class. Houston looks purposely dreadful and in line to finish with the worst record in the NBA (again). Detroit looks determined to a fault to giving players who may or may not be adding value big minutes. And Orlando is rolling out all kinds of oddball lineups with little success, even as No. 1 pick Paolo Banchero sets the world on fire as a rookie. The commitment to tanking productively struggling is very real and it is spectacular.
