#NBA Power Rankings

The biggest storylines in the NBA over the past week have been in the injury department, as Kevin Durant, Zion Williamson, and Paul George have all went down to injuries. However, there have also been positive injury moves, with Stephen Curry set to return on Tuesday and Anthony Davis reportedly getting closer to a return, which has moved the Los…

We've seen some ridiculous scoring performances in the NBA lately, with Donovan Mitchell dropping 71 points on Monday and Luka Doncic posting a 60-point triple double in a comeback win over the New York Knicks last week. But the man who is going to be the all-time leader scoring in NBA history, LeBron James, is putting up eye-popping numbers at age…

There are several teams on winning streaks in the NBA, with the Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers leading the charge with nine and eight-game streaks themselves. However, Christmas Day was about the Boston Celtics and their absolute domination of the Milwaukee Bucks. Milwaukee needs an answer on offense with Khris Middleton out, and Boston is…

The Eastern Conference is full of win streaks right now, as the Brooklyn Nets, Philadelphia 76ers, New York Knicks, Cleveland Cavaliers and Miami Heat have all won at least four straight games to tighten the top half of the standings in the conference. The Orlando Magic deserve an honorable mention in here (may be the only time I say that this…

We're finally reaching the point in the NBA season where we have a big enough sample size to truly evaluate some teams, and it's already become clear that squads like the San Antonio Spurs, Houston Rockets and Orlando Magic won't be competing this season. After slow starts to the 2022-23 campaign, the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors…

We're getting to the point in the NBA season where several teams are affected by injuries, so having a healthy team can move you in the Power Rankings from week-to-week. One team that is finally getting there is the Los Angeles Clippers, who welcomed Kawhi Leonard back into the lineup last week. Leonard's return puts the Clippers back in the NBA…

The biggest news in the NBA this week came from the defending NBA champions, as forward Draymond Green threw a punch at guard Jordan Poole in practice, leading to him taking time away from the team. Green's actions certainly could effect the chemistry in Golden State's locker room, but Vegas isn't overreacting to the news, keeping the Warriors…

NBA training camp is here, and were less than a month away from the start of the 2022-23 regular season. There have been some key injuries that have already come out, with Keldon Johnson (San Antonio Spurs), Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Oklahoma City Thunder) and Robert Williams III (Boston Celtics) all banged up entering the season. Williams is…

Teams tend to fit neatly into boxes in the NBA. There are the haves and the have nots. There are franchises actively trying to lose and there are franchises deep into the luxury tax because their championship windows require full commitment. This isn't the NFL. Not every team has a chance. Even the Jets won Sunday. With that in mind, we present The…

We are less than a month away from opening night in the NBA! If that doesn't get you fired up to watch some basketball during the week, especially when we don't have football on, then maybe our weekly NBA Power Rankings aren't for you (but I hope they are). There hasn't been much going on in the NBA offseason recently, but the Boston Celtics, the…

We've officially come to the dog days of the NBA offseason, as the Donovan Mitchell trade effectively ended the rumor mill and the big dominoes left to fall in the league. That's led to the NBA Finals odds coming to a standstill at FanDuel, but does that give us a chance to jump on a value candidate before training camp? Here's how each team stacks…

2021-22 record: 20-62, 15th in West Biggest additions: Jabari Smith Jr. (F/C - R), Tari Eason (F - R), Sterling Brown (F), Trey Burke (G) Championship odds: 1000/1 What to know: Houston has some talented, intriguing young players in Jabari Smith, Jalen Green, and Kevin Porter Jr. But there are also big roster holes around them. The Rockets' future…
