ESPN predicts the most turbulent team next season, the Bucks are at the top!

1. Milwaukee Bucks: 41 points

2. Los Angeles Lakers: 32 points

T3. Boston Celtics/Phoenix Suns: 28 points

4. Philadelphia 76ers: 25 points

5. Indiana Pacers: 19 points

The Milwaukee Bucks topped the list because it is believed that the team faces increasing uncertainty at the end of the competitive window. Giannis Antetokounmpo remains one of the best players in the world. However, the talent gap between him and other team members is still obvious, even as Milwaukee signed Miles Turner in free market, making unprecedented moves. To sign Turner, the Bucks cut down guard Damian Lillard and amortized his contract’s balance of more than $110 million over the next five years, giving them future flexibility to find a short-term solution — a look seen by competitors as a desperate show of the Bucks’ final moments in Antetokounmpo’s peak.

The key to the Bucks' success this season will be to remain highly dependent on Tucker. The two-time MVP had a huge task before, but bringing the team into a competitive state without a clear second star might require his hardest effort. Milwaukee struggled 2-8 at the start of last season and then found a way to unite and make the playoffs, but was eliminated in the first round. If the Bucks are slow to heat up again this season, will they have enough patience and confidence to fight back?
