1. Los Angeles Lakers- Russell Westbrook returns to LA where he starred at UCLA but age and health could potentially thwart a Championship run (Playoffs, 2 Seed)
2. Phoenix- the core remains intact from last years’ Finals team however must improve on the glass after finishing 20th in the league in total rebounding (Playoffs, 3 Seed)
3. Golden State- Steph Curry is coming off a career high 32 points a game and will need a similar effort to begin 2021 while Klay Thompson remains sidelined (Playoffs, 6 Seed)
4. Los Angeles Clippers- Paul George and free agent pickup Eric Bledsoe 12.2 points, 3.8 assists must carry the load as Kawhi Leonard’s status for 2021 remains unclear (Play In, 8 Seed)
5. Sacramento- the Kings have plenty of young talent in De’Aaron Fox 25.2 points, 7.2 assists and Marvin Bagley III 14.1 points, 7.4 rebounds but not enough pieces to contend for its first Playoff appearance in 16 seasons
Buy- None
Sell- Los Angeles Clippers
Best Bet- Los Angeles Clippers UNDER total wins
