Oklahoma City Thunder
Returning Goods: Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant, Serge Ibaka
2014-15 Breakout Player: Steven Adams
Word: For a team that lacks a true center, having Steven Adams will begin to pay dividends this season. Adams should eventually replace Kendrick Perkins as the Thunder’s starting spot by season’s end, the latest. He should be the starter from Day one but, Scott Brooks.
