GREEN BAY CHALLENGES FOR A CONFERENCE TITLE

I don't know if the Phoenix will be in the thick of the regular-season title race or make a run through the conference tournament, but I think Doug Gottlieb's squad can make some real noise this season. The improvement from Gottlieb's first season to his second was massive, especially offensively, with a shift to a slower tempo. With Marcus Hall returning to lead the way, Green Bay will take another step forward in 2026-27.
