Dallas had just a 1.8 percent chance of winning the top pick in the draft, but somehow managed to pull it off.
But even for those who think there's nothing to be skeptical about in terms of the NBA Draft Lottery, they're now looking at these results with nothing but skepticism as 'rigged' trended on X with over 80k posts.
NBA star Kevin Love, among many others, couldn't hold back his laughter at the outcome of the lottery.
Even LeBron James, who has previously voiced his skepticism with the NBA Draft Lottery on Pat McAfee's show, also couldn't help but laugh at the results.
As for the fans, well, not a single soul across the league doesn't think it wasn't rigged for the Mavericks after trading star player Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers earlier in the season.
Now, they get the best player in the draft in Cooper Flagg.
Even those in sports media couldn't help but feel like this is an obvious behind-the-scenes move by the NBA.
The Ringer's Bill Simmons even predicted the Mavericks getting Flagg with the No. 1 overall pick as a joke when it was 100-1 odds of it happening.
The Dallas Mavericks are expected to take Flagg with the No. 1 overall pick as the franchise looks to bring in a new star to replace Doncic.
Perhaps the NBA should move to what the NHL did this year for their lottery and record it live to eliminate any doubt of conspiracy.
