With the NBA All-Star Weekend right around the corner, many favorites to win the 2024 NBA Championship have started to form among the fanbase of the league.
However, it’s obvious that not every fan has the same choice for the team that they believe will win the 2024 NBA title.
After all, every fan is entitled to their opinion about the top-five teams in the league this season.
Speaking of which, former NBA player turned analyst Kendrick Perkins recently shared his list of five teams that he believes are top contenders to lift the Larry O’Brien trophy via NBA on ESPN on Twitter.
“I have the Denver Nuggets – in no particular order, the Clippers, the Celtics, the Knicks, and the Suns on my top-five contenders,” Perkins said.

The former NBA player believes the Denver Nuggets, New York Knicks, Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Clippers, and Boston Celtics are the top-five contenders in the NBA right now.
Perkins mentioned that he hasn’t ranked the teams in any particular order, and it’s simply his take.
To be honest, the Nuggets, Knicks, Clippers, and Celtics have played remarkably well over the course of the season.
However, the inclusion of the Phoenix Suns may not sit well with some fans.
Sure, the team has a Big 3 of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal on the roster, but the trio is yet to truly reach it’s full potential this season.
As of now, the safest bet for the potential 2024 NBA champion is undoubtedly the Boston Celtics.
They have an excellent roster and currently have the best record in the league.
Moreover, they have dominated the Eastern Conference by staying as the number one seed for most of the season.
