Highlights

  • The San Antonio Spurs may not have a high seed or winning record, but with generational prospect Victor Wembanyama on board, and with Gregg Popovich coaching, the young squad should be one worth watching.
  • The Houston Rockets have added veterans Fred VanVleet and Dillon Brooks to their young roster, and with coach Ime Udoka, they have the talent and experience to improve from last season's poor record.
  • The New Orleans Pelicans have a better chance of surpassing the Spurs and Rockets due to their longer time playing together and more proven talent in Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram, and CJ McCollum. However, their success will depend on Williamson's ability to stay healthy.
