#5 Ranks 25-30
| Teams | Rank | Last week’s rank | Week 2 record | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oklahoma City Thunder | #25 | #25 | 1-2 | The Thunder could have had a winning record this week if it wasn’t for the Grizzlies snatching a win on their home floor. They are slowly but surely finding their footing through the injuries. |
| Orlando Magic | #26 | #27 | 1-3 | With Victor Oladipo yet to make his return, the win over the 76ers was the only silver lining of the week. Nikola Vucevic, the starting center has been putting up huge numbers. |
| Indiana Pacers | #27 | #20 | 1-4 | If it wasn’t for the Utah Jazz visiting the Pacers, the Indiana franchise would have had a winless week losing miserably to the Wizards twice and the Celtics. |
| Los Angeles Lakers | #28 | #29 | 1-1 | The Lakers finally win a game after their worst ever start to the season in franchise history (0-5). Charles Barkley can breathe a sigh of relief. |
| Denver Nuggets | #29 | #18 | 0-3 | The Nuggets are currently on a five game losing streak, losing by an average of 12 points every game. |
| Philadelphia 76ers | #30 | #30 | 0-3 | The tanking at Philadelphia continues. Mind you if it wasn’t for Tobias Harris’ game winning shot they were might close to defeating the Orlando Magic in the battle of the minnows and grabbing their first win. They are the only team to be winless. |
