Exploring every team’s biggest need heading into the NBA’s holiday season

Christmas in just around the corner, and there’s no question that we’re heading into what many casual fans perceive as the NBA’s Opening Day with many interesting storylines.

From the struggling Golden State Warriors to the cold Houston Rockets to the red-hot Denver Nuggets and Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference. Out East, the Toronto Raptors are picking up where they left off after losing DeMar DeRozan during the off-season.

The Boston Celtics are still trying to find themselves, though have been better as of late, and the Washington Wizards are a mess.

Jimmy Butler is now with the Philadelphia 76ers, and the whispers surrounding Anthony Davis are only growing with every passing day. Roughly though 30 games, we’re beginning to see early trends transform into regular season realities.

So what does every team need heading into the next calendar year? Well, we explore every team’s biggest need during the Holiday season. Perhaps NBA Santa will give teams the hope – and perhaps 3-and-D wing – that they’re desperately in need of.

We explore the entire NBA landscape, beginning with the Atlanta Haws.
