28. Houston Rockets
The Houston Rockets are an interesting team to watch heading into the offseason. They have the assets to make a major move and enough young, talented pieces where they could emerge as a dark horse threat to make the playoffs next season.
If nothing else, equipped with another high draft pick, the Rockets will be one of the most exciting young teams in the league next season.
27. Oklahoma City Thunder
The Oklahoma City Thunder got the LeBron James bump this past week when he praised the job that Sam Presti has done as the team’s general manager. Whether it was in jest or not, it’s something to keep in mind.
Nevertheless, there’s still plenty of work to do for Presti and the Thunder this offseason.
