Dallas Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks finished last season at the top of the Southwest Division, winning the Western Conference title after that. Luka Doncic is the early favorite to win the NBA MVP award this season, while he is surrounded by Kyrie Irving and plenty of other weapons going into this year. Dallas will need to show some major fortitude to bounce back from losing in the NBA Finals, but they certainly have enough talent to do so.
Memphis Grizzlies
The Memphis Grizzlies didn’t try very hard to win basketball games last season. Ja Morant and several other key players were shut down before the All-Star break, while a group of G-League level players went out there and played out the rest of the year. This season, Morant is back and has an early Rookie of the Year favorite in Zach Edey with him. Needless to say, things could change very quickly for the Grizzlies this season.
New Orleans Pelicans
New Orleans finished in second place in the Southwest Division, advancing to the playoffs via the play-in tournament last year. The success of this team will depend largely on how available Zion Williamson is, as he has missed so many games in recent years for this team. But with or without Williamson, this could be a playoff team once again, thanks to their terrific guard lineup led by CJ McCollum and Dejounte Murray.
Houston Rockets
Last year’s Houston Rockets were a respectable basketball team, finishing 41-41 for the season. The Rockets are still not quite a playoff-caliber basketball team just yet, but they are moving in the right direction and that is a positive. If Alperen Sengun can stay healthy this season, he could be the difference maker in a division that is very soft at the center position on many other teams, at least while Zach Edey of Memphis and Victor Wembanyama of San Antonio are still young.
San Antonio Spurs
The San Antonio Spurs finished with the second-worst record in the Western Conference this past season. They managed to add another solid piece in the draft as a result of all those losses, adding Stephon Castle to a roster that already features Victor Wembanyama on it. Wemby could receive MVP love this year if the Spurs improve enough in the win column, as his limitless physical tools will make him the best player on the floor on many nights.
