NBA: One x-factor for every team heading into 2022-23
San Antonio Spurs – Josh Primo
The San Antonio Spurs look like a team that’s ready for a rebuild. That was made evident by the team trading Dejounte Murray to the Atlanta Hawks during the offseason. With opportunities readily available in San Antonio, Josh Primo is a player that could take advantage.
Primo is a player that could take a bigger role with the Spurs and could end up being the next quality player that is churned out by San Antonio.
Toronto Raptors – OG Anunoby
The Toronto Raptors emerged as a dark horse threat in the Eastern Conference during the second half of last season. Injuries ultimately doomed the Raptors in the playoffs, but they’re a team that will gain steam at the start of the year.
OG Anunoby should be considered an x-factor simply because he’s quickly become somewhat of a forgotten player in Toronto. Though, he could be very important to the team’s success this season.
