#7 Phoenix Suns
2020-21 record: 7-4
Upcoming fixtures: Memphis Grizzlies (away), Houston Rockets (away), Denver Nuggets (home)
Previous Top-10 ranking: 4th (↓3)
The Phoenix Suns have seen their last three games postponed, but their impressive record and is enough for them to remain in the NBA Power Rankings.
They currently have one of the most in-form backcourts in the league in Devin Booker and Chris Paul. The duo, along with some good coaching by Monty Williams, has led the Suns to the 4th spot in the Western Conference.
#6 Philadelphia 76ers
2020-21 record: 9-5
Upcoming fixtures: Boston Celtics (home), Boston Celtics (home), Detroit Pistons (away)
Previous Top-10 ranking: 5th (↓1)
The Philadelphia 76ers are down one spot from the previous week, in our NBA Power Rankings. It is incredible that the 76ers have managed to maintain a 9-5 record, as they faced a squad management crisis last week due to multiple key players being ruled out due to health and safety reasons.
Their last game against OKC Thunder was postponed and Doc Rivers' men will now take on fierce rivals Boston Celtics on Jan 20 in a blockbuster Eastern Conference clash.
#5 Boston Celtics
2020-21 record: 8-4
Upcoming fixtures: Philadelphia 76ers (away), Philadelphia 76ers (away), Cleveland Cavaliers (home)
Previous Top-10 ranking: 6th (↑1)
Despite an embarrassing loss at the hands of New York Knicks, the Celtics climb up a spot in this week's NBA Power Rankings. The main reasons behind their rise are their fantastic 8-4 record, and their win against the Orlando Magic despite having just eight players available for the game.
The Boston Celtics had most of their stars out last week, and the roster displayed its resilience. The 17-time champions take on Sixers next and will have a much more respectable roster to work with.
Guess the Lakers players!
