2020 Basketball Dynasty 26 Power Rankings - Week 5
1.
Minnesota Timberwolves (9-0) - Highest scorer of the week like clockwork. Surprisingly, Biyombo is still getting good minutes with Zeller back. We'll see how long that lasts.
2.
Boston Celtics (7-2) - Huge win this week vs Cleveland despite not having KAT.
3.
Milwaukee Bucks (7-2) - Clint Capela can't keep this up, can he?
4.
Cleveland Cavaliers (5-4) - Very tough 0-2 week for Cleveland with both matchups within a 11 point margin.
5.
New Orleans Pelicans (6-3) - Westbrook is finally back. Still waiting on Salami to make his first move.
6.
Los Angeles Clippers (8-1) - Brought in some solid role players this week (Lonnie Walker, Poetl, Slo-Mo)
7.
Golden State Warriors (6-3) - With so many guys on the shelf, Caleb just needs to tread water and hope McCollum returns sooner rather than later.
8.
Los Angeles Lakers (8-1) - Like I mentioned as a possibility last week, Prince has stepped up his production in Cleveland and could be a nice piece to have down the stretch if he keeps getting minutes.
9.
Miami Heat (7-2) - Team is starting to get on a roll despite the trade of Lonnie Walker this week. Who will Bryan bring in to replace his role on the team?
10.
Chicago Bulls (6-3) - You know Chuck is chomping at the bit to make more moves and continue his playoff push.
11.
Brooklyn Nets (6-3) - Levert news hurts and you just hope he's ok.
12.
Charlotte Hornets (7-2) - Wiseman continues to improve and you definitely think he'll be a consistent 20+ FPG guy by end of the year.
13.
New York Knicks (6-3) - With Gallo and Burks in the fold, this team has some valuable depth to add to their studs.
14.
Atlanta Hawks (6-3) - Harden looks decent so far with Kyrie and KD.
15.
Orlando Magic (5-4) - Kanter will provide Orlando with some much needed production with Nurkic hurt in Portland.
16.
Toronto Raptors (4-5) - Added a first round pick at the expense of two contributors in Gallo and Burks, but Toronto still scored a hefty 629 points in week 5.
17.
Portland Trailblazers (2-7) - Huge statement by Portland in week 5 with a 2-0 week as a top 3 scorer. Can they keep it going with a new GM in the mix?
18.
Sacramento Kings (4-5) - 0-2 week for Davey against Caleb and Loren. RoLo might be decent with Bryant hurt in Washington.
19.
Washington Wizards (5-4) - Rumor mill is churning in Washington right now as they look to add more pieces for the playoff push.
20.
Oklahoma City Thunder (4-5) - With MPJ back, Barton will probably regress.
21.
Utah Jazz (3-6) - TJ continues his surprising year with a 1-1 week.
22.
Dallas Mavericks (2-7) - You'd think a team with 2 A- and 2 B+ draft grades in the first round would have a better record but...I digress
23.
Detroit Pistons (2-7)
24.
Houston Rockets (2-7)
25.
Denver Nuggets (1-8)

San Antonio Spurs (2-7)
