In the darkest days of the offseason, let us shed some light and look at the best projected backcourts in 2016-17. This is the latest installment of NBA Power Rankings

Not all rosters are set in stone for the 2016-17 season by any means, but that won’t stop us from speculation, including ranking the NBA‘s best backcourts heading into the new season.

Please understand that this is just the opinion of one writer (myself) and I have compiled these rankings as unbiased as possible. Also, note that these are projected starting backcourts – not every player is locked in as a starter next season.

Training camps haven’t even opened yet, so some shifting along the depth chart (including the starting backcourt) is bound to happen.

So just sit back, relax and (hopefully) enjoy as I take you through every NBA team’s starting backcourt, from the worst to the best.
