The Eastern Conference looks very similar to last season except with one major change; no more Kawhi Leonard. Where do the Wizards rank in the East?

In todays NBA, the Western Conference is getting all the attention and deservingly so. The Lakers, Rockets, and Clippers look to be powerhouse teams. The Jazz, Warriors, Trail Blazers, and Nuggets are championship sleepers. Also, the Pelicans, Mavericks, and Spurs are trying to earn respect from around the league.

Let’s be honest, the West is stacked, but let’s not forget about the Eastern Conference.

The East consists of sleepers, young talent, and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Many expect either the Sixers or Bucks to come out as kings of the East. However, those who do may be surprised when they see who ranks number one in the Power Rankings.
