The Complete NBA Guide - 2026-27 Season

All 30 teams, everything you need before tip-off.

By Ramiro Bentes (@nbainrstats)

The NBA is back, and this might be the most hyped season in years.

One number helps explain where the league is right now: eight different champions in the last eight years. Toronto, the Lakers, Milwaukee, Golden State, Denver, Boston, Oklahoma City and, this past June, the Knicks, who ended a 53-year drought. Over that same stretch, no team has made the Finals in back-to-back years.

There’s no shortage of storylines this time around, which is why this is one of the most anticipated seasons in years. The draft brought the most hyped class in a long time, with AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson, Cameron Boozer and Caleb Wilson all looking like future All-Stars. The offseason shook up the whole league: Giannis left Milwaukee after 13 seasons, LeBron went to Philadelphia at 41, and Kawhi Leonard and Jaylen Brown will also be wearing new jerseys. Add to that the guys coming back after spending last year rehabbing serious injuries, like Tyrese Haliburton, Kyrie Irving, Damian Lillard and Anthony Davis.

Then there’s a quieter change that could matter just as much: the new draft lottery rules all but kill the incentive to tank. For years, teams would pack it in around February to improve their odds at a top pick. That barely pays off anymore, which should mean fewer meaningless games in March and more teams fighting until the end.

Right in the middle of all this is Victor Wembanyama. He made the Finals, lost to the Knicks and is coming back like someone who hasn’t gotten over it. Was last season’s Finals the start of his villain arc?

Picking a favorite in the East feels close to impossible. You’ve got the defending champion Knicks, a Detroit team that won 60 games, Boston, Cleveland and a rebuilt Philadelphia with LeBron and Jaylen Brown. Miami and Toronto have new superstars, while Orlando and Atlanta come in with high expectations after promising finishes to last season. At least one team on that list is going to miss the playoffs.

In the West, Oklahoma City and San Antonio, who met in last season’s conference finals, are still a step ahead of everyone else, but the Lakers, Rockets, Timberwolves and Nuggets all have the talent to crash a conference finals rematch.

This guide is built to help you follow all of it. Each of the 30 teams gets a page with how it did over the last three seasons, who came in and who left, the projected starting five, the bench and what to expect this year. It’s for both the die-hard fans who never miss a game, and for anyone who drifted away from the league for a few years and is now all in on the hype.

Enjoy the read, and enjoy the season.

How to read each team’s notes

The Guy: the team’s best player.

X-Factor: not the best player, but can raise the team’s ceiling.

Breakout: neither a rookie nor a star. Someone who could take a leap this season, whether a near-unknown who becomes a rotation piece or a good player who starts flirting with star status.
