The Warriors sit on top of our Summer NBA Power Rankings, but the Clippers and Grizzlies are in the top five. 1. Warriors (53-29). The defending champions deservedly start the next season on top of these power rankings, but to stay there will require some of their younger stars — Moses Moody (who looked fantastic at Summer League), Jonathan Kuminga, James Wiseman — stepping into larger roles to fill the gap left by Gary Payton II and Otto Porter Jr. Plus the youngsters need to help keep the minutes under control for Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. Donte DiVincenzo was a smart pickup and could have a big bounce-back season in the Bay Area.

As the NBA offseason rolls on, some of the league's biggest and brightest stars remain in the spotlight with appearances at summer pro-am leagues.
We've seen DeMar DeRozan and LeBron James shut down Los Angeles' Drew League. Now, the Pacific Northwest gets a piece of the action as The CrawsOver Pro-Am gets underway in Seattle.
In addition to the league's namesake, Jamal Crawford, The CrawsOver features over a dozen players with NBA ties, including 2022 No. 1 overall pick Paolo Banchero and Hawks All-Star guard Dejounte Murray.

Paolo Banchero's aiding and abetting DWI charge dropped after incident with Coach K's grandson
Paolo Banchero's aiding and abetting DWI charge dropped after incident with Coach K's grandsonBanchero was charged in November after police stopped him and teammate Michael Savarino, who is coach Mike Krzyzewski’s grandson, driving early one morning in Orange County, North Carolina. Savarino reportedly admitted to drinking alcohol earlier in the night after police stopped him for running a stop sign, and he then received a “poor” on a field sobriety test.

While other obligations might keep these players from suiting up in every game, you should be able to count on seeing them show up and show out at least once. Opening weekend saw Raptors guard Malachi Flynn turn in a 73-point performance, while Crawford scored 46 points and flirted with a triple-double in three quarters of action.
Crawford also announced that 2022 No. 2 overall pick Chet Holmgren will be playing this weekend. It's unclear which team he will be playing for.

Dejounte Murray serving up some spicy beef for No. 1 overall pick Paolo Banchero .
Atlanta’s newest basketball star has been doing a lot over the last couple of days. Dejounte Murray has been on a tear both on and off the court since his matchup in a ProAm game with Orlando Magic rookie and No. 1 overall pick Paolo Banchero. Murray put a nice move and ball fake on Banchero, then threw himself an alley-oop off the backboard, slammed it over the rookie, and got in his face afterward. © Image: AP Dejounte Murray is relentless. Dejounte Murray that’s sick ???? @DejounteMurray @isaiahthomas pic.twitter.
