Team Summary
A quiet summer of continuity: retained DeAndre Jordan and declined Kevon Looney's $8M option (he signed with the Lakers), keeping the core headlined by Zion Williamson, Dejounte Murray and Trey Murphy III intact. The roster remains deep with young wings (Jones, Bey, Hawkins) and multiple developmental centers (Dickinson, Queen, Missi), but lacks a true second star and is hard-capped over the first apron. Health and Zion's consistency dictate whether this group climbs into playoff contention or stays stuck in the play-in mix.
