The final 2023 NBA preseason power rankings have been released ahead of the league’s 2023-24 season, and the Boston Celtics and Denver Nuggets are leading the way at the start of the coming campaign according to the folks at NBC Sports.

To hear more about why NBC Sports has Boston ranked so highly, take a look at the clip embedded below.
