6. Orlando Magic
This team was one of my favorites to watch last season. They upgraded at coach with their hiring of Scott Skiles and drafted a guy who’s got MJ-esque confidence and Stephen Curry range in Mario Hezonja. I’m sold. This team will play fast, hard, and tough on defense. What’s not to like? Playoffs? I don’t know, but I’ll watching as many of these games as possible.
5. Milwaukee Bucks
The Bucks were one of my favorite NBA League Pass teams last season. Cosmetically, they’re a much different team than they were a year ago today. No longer is Brandon Knight quarterbacking the team from the point guard position, as he was replaced via trade by former NBA Rookie of the Year Michael Carter-Williams. Also new to the team is marquee free agent acquisition Greg Monroe, who’ll anchor the paint.
