Defending champion Denver Nuggets topped the offseason power rankings.
According to the 2023-24 off-season power ranking released by the media ESPN on the morning of the 27th, Denver topped the list.
Denver maintained a strong starting lineup that included "Final MVP" Nikola Jokic, "Comeback of the Year" Jamal Murray, Michael Potter Jr. and Aaron Gordon and Kentavius Caldwell-Pop.
Found rookie Christian Brown last season, although he lost key bench resources Bruce Brown and Jeff Green. Then, thanks to his busy work in the off-season, he was able to fill the gap by signing rookie contracts with 29th-ranked Julian Strother in the first round, 32nd-ranked Jeilan Pickett in the second round, and 37th-ranked Hunter Tyson, respectively.
The Milwaukee Bucks, led by Yanis Atekounbo, were then selected as the second place. Milwaukee immediately appointed Adrian Griffin after replacing Budenholzer, and re-signed key players Chris Middleton, Brooke Lopez and Jay Crowder. He also strengthened his internal stability by recruiting Malik Beasley for the shooter position and Robin Lopez for the center position as a veteran minimum.
Boston Celtics, which recruited Kristaps Porzingis, was ranked third. Boston has to fill the gap of Marcus Smart, the "core of defense," with Derek White and Malcolm Brockdon filling the gap of the backcourt defense, but the front court jeans, which lead to Porzingis-Alford-Robert Williams III, are at the highest level in the league. However, in order to win, a step-up of Jeilan Brown, who signed a contract to extend the Super Max, is also needed. 카지노사이트
Phoenix Suns, who built the "Big Four" by recruiting Bradley Beale, ranked fourth. Bill-Devin Booker-Kevin Durant-Diandre Aitten has made the best move in terms of bringing in bench resources this off-season as well. Phoenix has purchased Eric Gordon, Yuta Watanabe, Keita Bates-Diopp, Ball Ball Ball, Chimeji Metu and Drew Eubanks in the free agent market.
The Miami Heat, which competed with Denver in the final, took fifth place. Miami has lost players Gabe Vincent and Max Struss, but head coach Eric Spoelstra, Jimmy Butler and snake Adebayo are in good shape. There is also bench ace Caleb Martin, who has signed Josh Richardson from outside and re-signed Kevin Love and Orlando Robinson.
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers, who are on the move to James Harden, ranked sixth, the LA Lakers, who showed their best off-season moves after ranking first in the second half of last season, ranked seventh, and the Golden State Warriors, who recruited Chris Paul, ranked eighth.
