The Central Division can rest easy knowing LeBron James is now in the Western Conference.
No longer on the Cleveland Cavaliers, James’ departure opens the door for a new division winner for the first time since his re-arrival in 2014.
With the Indiana Pacers and Milwaukee Bucks coming off impressive seasons in their own right, the Central is truly a five-team race as the division is filled with superstars, All-Star talent and impressive youth.
Whether you were two games back of the Cavs last season or finished 27-55, there’s a newfound energy in the division that hasn’t been felt in quite some time.
