Which Underdog Team Will Surprise Everyone in the 2025-26 NBA Season?

Detroit Pistons

Last season, the Pistons more than tripled their win total from two years ago — do they have another leap in them?

Like Indiana heading into last season, Detroit is the team projected by most to finish somewhere between fifth and seventh, but with real potential on the roster to surprise (especially in a down East this season). They showed last season in the playoffs that they are real — they fell to the Knicks in the first round but played respectably in that series.

Cade Cunningham should put together another All-NBA level season — 26.1 points, 9.1 assists, 6.1 rebounds a game — but the talent around him needs to step up. Jaden Ivey was having a breakout year, averaging 17.6 points a game, until a broken fibula on Jan. 1 ended his season after 30 games. Jalen Duren averaged 11.8 points and 10 rebounds a game last season and needs to take a step forward on both ends of the court.
