Uncovering the Hidden Clues in NBA Preseason That Could Rewrite the 2025-26 Season Dynamics
Preseason TRACR really likes the Sacramento Kings (12th) and Portland Trail Blazers (11th) this season, but given how unforgiving the Western Conference expects to be, they also could be prime candidates to not make the postseason.
But what if some of those teams do end up sneaking into the Sweet 16? We could see a team like the Los Angeles Lakers, Miami Heat or Atlanta Hawks severely underperform their personal expectations.Â
Which Team Will Surprise?
One other thing to note is that the “surprise” team of the year tends to have a strong preseason. In 2021-22, the Chicago Bulls finished second in net rating in the preseason and went on to win 15 more games than they did in 2020-21. The Sacramento Kings were first in preseason net rating in 2022-23 and had an 18-game improvement. The Orlando Magic were fifth in net rating and had a 13-win bump. Last year, the Detroit Pistons were seventh in net rating before their record-breaking turnaround.
