One reason to be excited about every NBA team for 2024-25 season: Knicks going all-in, Wolves more balanced

From contending for a title to potentially landing a generational talent in next year's draft, now is the time for optimism

We're less than a week away from the start of the 2024-25 NBA regular season, so it makes sense to take stock of the league before all the action starts. This is the only point of the year where all 30 teams are truly optimistic about the upcoming season, where the trade machine isn't a constant topic of conversation and fans can have a positive approach about their favorite squad.

In keeping with that positive theme, it feels right to point out one reason to be excited about every team in the league -- from the excitement of contending for a championship to the prospect of landing a generational talent in next year's draft. 

While every team's outlook may vary, there's still at least one reason to be excited about each team this season.
