On August 9, Beijing time, according to a report by Shams, the five year-end battles for the 2024-25 season were released: Spurs vs. Knicks, Timberwolves vs. Mavericks, 76ers vs. Celtics, Lakers vs. Warriors, Nuggets vs. Suns. The Battle of Janku is still the theme of the year-end battle.

Wembanyama will make his debut for the year-end game. He was already a record-breaker in his rookie season and became an epoch-making star. The league arranged for him to enter the year-end game, and left the big stage of Madison to him, which can be regarded as a full card. In the Olympic arena, the France men's basketball team led by Wembans also reached the final, and their final opponent was the United States team. In two games against the Knicks last season, Wemban's averaged 27 points, 14.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game.

The Timberwolves PK the Mavericks, and another rising star, Edwards, also joined the year-end battle. The battle between him and Doncic is exciting. Last season's Western Conference Finals were played between these two teams. In the end, the Mavericks eliminated the Timberwolves 4-1 to advance. In those five games, Edwards averaged 24.6 points, 8.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game, and Doncic averaged 32.4 points, 9.6 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game.

The 76ers and the Celtics are also old rivals. It will be interesting to see if the 76ers Big Three, who joined George, can beat last season's champions, the Green Army. Embiid and Tatum became teammates on the United States team and will become bitter enemies when they return to the NBA.

Lakers vs. Warriors have often been the main theme of year-end battles, and next season will be no exception. James and Curry have led the United States men's basketball team to the Olympic finals and have a good chance to win the gold medal together, but back in the NBA, the battle still exists, and who will have the last laugh in the year-end battle of Janku?

Both the Nuggets and the Suns were teams with high expectations, but neither could go far last season. The Nuggets lost Pope in the offseason, the Suns kept the Big Three, and changed the new coach, what kind of new chapter will be written between them in the year-end battle. The matchup between Jokic and Durant is also exciting.

Which group are you most looking forward to?
