Heading into 2016, it’s been somewhat of an unpredictable start to the NBA season.

While the Warriors, Spurs, Cavs, and Thunder have all gotten off to strong starts, there have been shake-ups elsewhere in the NBA.

Here are your NBA power rankings heading into the new year.

Note: Offensive and defensive ratings measure points scored and points allowed per 100 possessions. League rank next to ratings.
