What Team Is The Worst In The NBA?
Contents
It’s a debate that NBA fans have been having for years: what team is the worst in the NBA? Here are some of the most contenders for the title.
The Los Angeles Lakers
The Los Angeles Lakers are currently the worst team in the NBA. They have a record of 4-20 and they are last in the Western Conference. The Lakers have lost 8 games in a row and they don’t seem to be improving anytime soon. Kobe Bryant is the only bright spot on the team and he is getting old. The Lakers are a mess and it doesn’t look like they are going to be good anytime soon.
Their record
The Los Angeles Lakers have the worst record in the NBA. As of February 11, 2019, they have only won 10 games and lost 37 games. This is a very disappointing record for a team that has been to the Finals so many times in recent years. The Lakers will need to make some changes if they want to turn things around.

Their recent performances
The Brooklyn Nets are an American professional basketball team based in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. The Nets compete in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a member of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference. The team plays its home games at Barclays Center.

They played four seasons in New Brunswick, New Jersey, as the New Jersey Americans, before relocating to Long Island in 1968 and changing their name to the New York Nets. During this time, the Nets won two ABA championships (in 1974 and 1976). In 1976, after moving back to New Jersey, they were renamed as the New Jersey Nets and eventually began to play their home games at Continental Airlines Arena (later renamed Brendan Byrne Arena and Izod Center) in East Rutherford until 2010 when they moved to Newark’s newly constructed Prudential Center.
