5. Indiana Pacers

The Indiana Pacers may not be as flashy as some of the other team’s on this list, but they have Paul George, who is one of the NBA’s budding superstars. I believe he’s going to make a huge jump next season, which could be even bigger playing next to a player like Kevin Durant.

If George can post big numbers while side-stepping double teams and battling against every team’s best defender, imagine what he’d be able to do alongside the NBA’s third best player.

Indiana won’t be talked about much as a preferred destination for Kevin Durant, but maybe they should be. Would there be a better duo in the NBA than Durant and George? Maybe Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson? Maybe.
