The Lakers will struggle. They’ll make the playoffs but lose in the first round to a higher seeded team.
The Hawks will be just as bad as the 04-05 Hawks, winning only 13 games.
Jimmy Butler will be traded to the Knicks after the Wolves continue to struggle.
The Wizards will continue to struggle and try to trade John Wall.
Fultz will show significant promise and Simmons and Embiid will stay healthy. Sixers win 50+ games.
Chicago will exceed expectations, similar to the 14-15 Celtics, and make the playoffs.
Kevin Love will have a monster stat year, putting up 23 and 14 just like in his Minnesota days. Cavs won’t be half bad.
Bagley and Doncic will be far and away the best rookies. The rest of the 2018 class will struggle including Ayton. Bagley will win ROTY.

Raptors struggle and it becomes apparent by mid season that Kawhis leaving.
Julius Randle thrives playing next to AD, has a monster year.

Jerian Grant will have a terrific year and solidify himself as the starting PG in Orlando.
Spurs win 55+ games.

I don’t know if Trae Young could be called a bust since not many are expecting him to be good..I seriously think the Doncic for Young trade will haunt ATL for years. Young is probably Mo Williams at very best.
SparzWizard:
An injury will happen to the Celtics. It always does.
Maybe it's Horford's turn now because he's been in the clear for a few years already. Knock on wood.
TheisTheisBaby:
Lakers miss the Playoffs completely.
Celtics go 16-0 in the playoffs en route to Banner 18.
Kevin Love leads the Cavs to the 5th seed.
Andrew Wiggins is an all-star.
The Celtics have 3 guys average 20+ PPG and 3 more also in double figures.
Victor Oladipo wins MVP.
