Yesterday, November 28, Thanksgiving Day was celebrated in the United States, so the NBA calendar did not include games in the evening: a tradition introduced in 2010 which does not foresee changes with the entry into force of the next television contracts, leaving the space completely to the NFL. We will return to play today, and the break is the right opportunity to stop the ranking when a quarter of the matches, more or less, have been played by all the teams. We remind you that the top six of each Conference access the playoffs, those from seventh to tenth place play a play-in with two promoted in the playoff table, the others close the championship at the end of the regular season. The Cleveland Cavaliers continue to be the top of the class in the entire NBA, even if followed by the Celtics in the East and the Thunder in the West. Among the teams expected for a top championship that are struggling in the rear we find the Sixers, who have not managed to field their Big Three together for more than 20 minutes so far, in the Eastern. While in the Western, the Minnesota Timberwolves stand out negatively, as they do not seem to have benefited from the Towns-Randle exchange. And respectively Orlando Magic and Houston Rockets are the teams in clear progress compared to the 2023-24 championship.
