Apart from that, the likes of Wilson Chandler and especially DeAndre Ayton and John Collins are out with massive 25-game suspensions. Dion Waiters of Miami Heat too was slapped with a 10-game suspension recently.

NBA Power Rankings Week 4

No.1 - Boston Celtics

Following an opening night defeat to the Philadelphia 76ers, the Boston Celtics have bounced back winning seven straight games. In their last game against Spurs, Gordon Hayward broke his left hand and is likely to miss at least a month of action as he could be forced to undergo surgery. Kemba Walker has been performing brilliantly since the departure of Kyrie Irving to the Nets. Boston will next play Washington on Wednesday evening.

Despite the departures of Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green, the defending champions have made a good start to the season with a record of 7-2. Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam have stepped up for the Raptors, but injuries to Kyle Lowry and Serge Ibaka might have just put a halt to their charge towards retaining the title which they won last year.
