NBA free agency 2019 is near its end and most of the trade deals are done and new formations are out. There is finally a way that the future of the NBA can be predicted based on the deals. Most of the star players have changed their teams from the last season, which makes the next season very interesting. Here are the NBA 2020 predictions for the Clipper, Lakers, Nets, Warriors, Knicks and Miami Heat.

Los Angeles Clippers
In a shocking move, the Los Angeles Clippers finally managed to sign in Kawhi Leonard for a trade deal. Along with Leonard, the Clippers also got George Paul in a sign and trade exchange with the team of Oklahoma City Thunder. Patrick Beverly has also been re-signed and the team is looking solid for the next year. The Clippers are now in the race for NBA 2020 finals and Leonard could repeat his magic again.
Restricted free agent center Ivaca Zubac has agreed to a four-year, $28M deal to stay with the Los Angeles Clippers, Excel Sports agents Jeff Schwartz and Mike Lindeman tell ESPN.

Los Angeles Lakers
The Lakers still have the best odds for next NBA title even without Kawhi Leonard in their team. The duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis looks solid and has great potential in the court. The Lakers also got Danny Green from the Raptors and maybe he can be their third-star player. If the power duo actually works and everything goes per the plan, then no team can stop the Lakers from lifting NBA 2020 trophy.
Free agent guard Danny Green will sign a two-year, $30M deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, league source tells ESPN.

Brooklyn Nets
The Brooklyn Nets managed to sign both Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, leaving everyone in wonder. DeAndre Jordan has also been exchanged in place of D’Angelo Russel from the Warriors. If Durant stays the same after recovering from his injury and can make a good pair with Irving, then there is no stopping them. There are high chances that the Nets can win the next NBA finals with the help of new star players.

Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors team is a bit weakened after losing Durant, but they still have a lot of potential. Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and D’Angelo Russel are still the big names in the Warriors team. The Warriors should play smart and re-sign DeMarcus Cousins if they want to rebuild their team. The next NBA season will be a test of their team strength and we hope they could repeat their performance even in 2020.
Fun fact: After all the speculation, rumors and deals, the Golden State Warriors still have the most All Stars in the League.

New York Knicks
The New York Knicks had a lot of cap space, but they couldn’t manage to sign Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving or Kawhi Leonard. None of the big players are ready to join the Knicks because of their poor performance. Dennis Smith and Julius Randle are their biggest purchase in free agency, which are just average players. But then again the Knicks have Bobby Portis, Wayne Ellington, Reggie Bullock, Taj Gibson and Elfrid Payton in their team. Maybe the Knicks have played smart and the medium level players can beat the top stars in the NBA 2020 playoffs.

Miami Heat
The team of Miami Heat was once at peak with winning two finals out of three back to back appearance. But as LeBron James left the team, the Heat slowly lost its way over the years. But this year they managed to grab a star in the form of Jimmy Butler from the free agency. Along with Butler, they have Goran Dragic, Derrick Jones, James Johnson, and other talented players. The team of Miami Heat has also strong chances to beat the big names in the NBA 2020 final games.
