7. San Antonio Spurs (35-24)

Even without Kawhi Leonard, the San Antonio Spurs, for the most part, have been one of the better teams in the Western Conference. Perhaps a “distant” best team in the conference, but still in the top 4 for the better part of the season.

Doing that without your best player isn’t no easy task, and that’s a testament to the culture that Gregg Popovich has built in San Antonio.

Question is, will Leonard make a return this season?
