GAME NIGHT: NBA's WORST Teams With The BRIGHTEST FUTURES | Wembanyam's Spurs & Sarr's Wizards LEAD The Way

NBA's Worst to First? Ranking Non-Playoff Teams' Futures

Which bottom-dwelling NBA squad has the brightest tomorrow? Hosts Jackson Gatlin (@Locked On Rockets) and David Ramil (@Locked On Heat) dissect the futures of teams that missed last season's playoffs. From the San Antonio Spurs' potential with Victor Wembanyama to the Washington Wizards' surprising upside, they analyze young cores, draft assets, and development trajectories. The duo debates the Phoenix Suns' long-term viability, ponders the New Orleans Pelicans' Zion Williamson dilemma, and struggles to pinpoint the bleakest outlook among the league's cellar-dwellers.

Tune in for expert insights on which NBA underdogs might become tomorrow's contenders.
