NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Clippers: Can they survive in the West?

The three big teams in the West as of now are the Warriors, the champions, the Grizzlies, a team that finished second in the Conference last season, and the Suns, a team that had the best record in the league last season. Considering the growth of the Timberwolves and the Jokic-led Nuggets getting two of their main guns back, the road is arduous for the Clippers. However, if Kawhi Leonard is ready for most of the season then his core alongside Paul George and John Wall can wreak havoc. The defense looks tight and the offense also has Norman Powell off the bench, will Kawhi be healthy enough?

Nuggets: What can they accomplish?

For sure, Nikola Jokic is one of the best players, and last season, he had to carry the majority of the load. Jokic is a creative Center, someone who can score off-the-dribble and also pull down big boards, and also is perhaps the best playmaker among the bigs. But the Nuggets missed Michael Porter Jr. on the defensive end while the Guard position was lean without Jamal Murray. With the return of these two, the team will be a much more effective unit on both ends of the floor. How will the Nuggets survive in the Wild Wild West?

NBA Scores, Fantasy Basketball Top Picks

Kawhi Leonard(LAC)
Kawhi is of course one of the best players when he is healthy and it was just some seasons go when the incredible two-way wing made a title run with the Raptors.

Michael Porter Jr.(DEN)
Michael is one of the elite defenders, a strong rebounder, and a strong finisher. However, his health has been a big concern since the beginning of his pro career.

Paul George(LAC)
George is one of the best defenders and also has a creative offensive game that fits the modern needs of the game very well.

Bruce Brown(DEN)
Last season, Bruce was the third-best player on the Nets and as a result, he can be up for a potential sixth man of the Year contention or a starting role eventually.

John Wall(LAC)
Wall has been a five-time All-Star but his health has been on decline. When he does play, he is one of the best at driving to the rim.

Bones Hyland(DEN)
Bones is a sophomore who showed great development last year and will help bolster the bench.

LAC vs DEN DREAM11 LINEUP BALANCERS

Reggie Jackson(LAC): Jackson is a viable guard and he will be up for another big season.
Ish Smith(DEN): Can sharp playmaker Ish eke out a 15-20 minutes role with the Nuggs?
Ivica Zubac(LAC): Ivica will be once again the helmsman in the middle for the LA Clippers.
Deandre Jordan(DEN): Jordan is no more in his prime but can provide elite rebounding and decent help defense.
Marcus Morris(LAC): Morris is great at nailing shots in high-post or off-the-ball situations.
Robert Covington:(LAC): Robert is a superb defender but will he get enough minutes in the loaded frontcourt of the Clippers?
Jeff Green(DEN): Veteran Green is a smart player and remains a relevant contributor.
