Sunday, January 24, 2016
The 2016 draft order will be determined via a lottery system. The 8 teams that failed to qualify for the playoffs in 2015 will each have an opportunity to secure one of the top three draft picks in the 2016 draft. Each team will be awarded lottery entries as follows:

Each entry will consist of a ball with an owner’s name affixed to it. All 92 balls will be placed into a software program (DraftPickLottery.com) and three balls will be selected electronically – one for the first, second and third overall picks. The fourth pick will be awarded to the non-lottery-winning owner with the worst record. The remaining order will be determined by the traditional method, by reversing the previous year’s final standings. As has been the case in prior years, the previous year’s champion selects twelfth and the runner-up selects eleventh.
