Team Asset Rankings 2024-25: Which franchises have the most valuable pieces?
As the 2024-25 NBA season lurches towards us, almost all of the summertime business is done. Aside from the usual turnover for the very final few spots, rosters are, for the most part, the same today as they will be come opening night.
That said, line-ups are forever fluid, and transactions are always going on. Just last season, for example. Damian Lillard (1st October) and Jrue Holiday (27th September) were two massive names to be moved in the free agency/training camp interregnum period, and James Harden (1st November) was only a couple of weeks into the season.
It matters, then, who has what. And it will matter even more come the midseason trade deadline. With that in mind, there follows a point-in-time appraisal and ranking of each NBA team’s assets in the trade market.
