NBA free agency 2025: New West tiers after flurry of moves
76% Informative
The NBA 's 2025-26 Eastern Conference race looks wide open due to a rash of star injuries.
The Thunder won the Western Conference by a record 16 games last season .
Oklahoma City is the clear-cut favorite with a great chance at making history.
The Rockets were something of a paper tiger in 2024-25 with a tireless regular-season effort.
Luka Doncic , LeBron James and Deandre Ayton are big question marks for L.A. Lakers .
The Warriors are in something of a holding pattern as they wait for free agent Al Horford to make a decision.
The Grizzlies need Cedric Coward to excel as a rookie, Jaylen Wells to take a big leap in his second season .
The Kings have stars, but they don't have a realistic path toward consistently winning games.
The Suns didn't get a great return when trading Durant , while simultaneously adding two centers on draft night.
The Jazz could try not to tank and still lose 60-plus games this season , given their own deficiencies.
