I did make a mistake in this video. AJ Dybantsa reclassified from 2027 to 2026 not 2026 to 2025. I apologize about that
No, you were right, Matt. He reclassified from 26 to 25.
No you were right
76ers fan here, but in 5 years from now joel embiid is gonna be almost irrelevant. Injuries. He is not going to age well into his later nba career. 2029 i do not have joel in the top 20.
I also would not have Fox either. I kinda see Fox in his early 30's like john wall. Injuries and out of the league. Im actually surprise he hasnt had any major injuries thus far based on his playing style.
no that was his highschool class not draft class hes still in the nba 2026 draft class@@mpick29
I’ll tell you the full story. He was originally class of 25 then reclassed DOWN to 26 then as he became the best player in the class of 26 he reclassed back UP to the class of 25 which he is now.
You should react to your previous top 20 in 5 years
How is there no replies? I’ll change that
I’ll make it 2!
I thought he would react to his picks from 2019
Most of them there are not even in the league anymore lol
ant man at 9 is criminal
Throughout his content, for some reason. he just has something against anything Timberwolves. Seems like a big market fan bias against 'small markets'.
Ant is 22 years old putting up 26-5-5 and he’s not in the top 5 which is insane to me
He’s overrated
Exactly. ANT, Shai, and Wemby will run the league in 5 years
@@KaizenWavy no he gone be 19
Ant gotta be top 5 he’s only 22 and has one of the highest celings in terms of game and skill.
jaylen brown at 17 is crazy he’s not even top 25 right now
Him over chet is insane
I’m taking Brandon Miller over him easily
for sure @@db2ez
Jb😂
Casual. If brown ran his own team he’d be averaging close to 30. He literally averages 28/7/4 when Tatum doesn’t play
Small guards like brunson struggle to stay in the league after age 30, no top 20 for him
Leagues changing tho, stars playing till their 40’s now
Thanks for mentioning. This guy commenting is delusional ^^
The league is a young man's game now, there is a huge void of veteran presence on teams because of the high demand in physicality, there for players are not playing into their 40s but 1 damn person named lebron, let's see really just how many players these days come close to 20 years in the next 10 years
@@pemp9606 yh but he's only a 6 foot guard look what happened to cp3 and how he fell off can't keep up especially with this build how many top 20 players over age of 30 are 6 foot
@@gritzxenus but 32 yo CP3 was competing with KD warriors and almost beat em
ant at 9 is a crime
i agree he has mj celing
wild having ant as 9 since it is a 5-year outlook. I think you could make that argument if he didn't improve the last 2 years, but he has made significant improvements on all parts of his game.
I aint picking Wemby over Luka.
In 5 years? Yeah…what separates Wemby from Luka in the end will be his defense
@@willis4574but he will also never be as good as an ofensive player as luka
@@zearturogrande4052 yeah but wemby will arguably be the best defensive player in five years, and at least a top 10 offensive player, coupled with the fact that he will probably average 10+ rebounds
@@zearturogrande4052Why not? Tea,s are triple teaming Wemby all the time and the only reason why Spurs are losing is his teammates are not knocking down wide open shots
In 5 years Luka is more likely to achieve team success over Wemby but in something like 7 Wemby would surely be better.
Bruh not even having Chet as an HM 😨
Maybe by 2029 Wembanyama will have beaten Chet at least once. He had his chance again last night in the Rising Stars tournament and. . .failed again.
Chet’s team won the tournament of course.
@@Oshakarahate to break it to you but Chet played like ass in the rising stars games he played💀
Chet in 2 games 17 minutes: 7 points, 5 boards, 1 assist, 2 stocks, 6 turnovers on 2-4 FG 2-2 FT
Wemby in 11 minutes: 11 points, 7 boards (3 offensive), 1 assist, 3 stocks, 5 turnovers on 5-6 FG 1-1 FT
You Chet dickriders can’t seem to comprehend that basketball is a TEAM SPORT.
That all being said, I definitely think he should’ve at least made the HM’s of this list, probably top 20
dont do that man. he not a type of franchise player. as long as sga is in there. you have seen wemby dominating chet. also his match ups against giannis jokic and embiid thats what the future looks like.
@@mindgamesesports5090 What a silly comment. First, this isn’t some Wemby vs. Chet thing. I didn’t say Chet should be #1. Wemby at #1 is fine. Second, Chet is 8-2 lifetime against the guys you mentioned across all platforms. So I’m not sure who you think is dominating him. Third, most “all in” statistics already have Chet top 25 as a rookie. To say he is going to get worse (or at least not improve) in 5 years is nonsense.
@@Oshakara don’t really why you’re bringing up Wemby rn considering no one mentioned him here but dawg wins are a team stat, and if you’re gonna attribute them to a player they go to the #1 option/team leader, not a third option. Also in the tournament Chet was dog shit compared to Wemby.
Chet: 7, 5, 1, 2 stocks on 2-4 shooting in 17 minutes
Wemby: 11, 7, 1, 3 stocks on 5-6 shooting in 10 minutes
Basketball is a team sport, idk why you’re giving Chet praise for winning the rising stars game when he waa getting carried by Mathurin and outperformed by Wemby.
I do agree that Chet should be here tho at bare minimum as an HM.
i think shaedon Sharpe at least deserves a honorable mention but I know he'll be a top 20 player in the league
Probably not lol
scoot

Commenting Shaedon sharpe top 20 in 2029
Limiting other guys because of injury concerns and then putting Wembanyama ahead of Luka while citing Wembanyama’s injury concerns is CRAZY.
because at least Wemby has generation talent potential unlike some players like Embiid. You don’t even have to be a Spurs fan to say this or think this, it’s obvious Wemby is a lot more special than Embiid
thank youuuu, took the words out of my mouth. Victor is gonna be injury prone like come tf on. Luka is already the best player in the history the nba. stats dont lie
@@jonah3107 ARE YOU 12 YEARS OLD?
@@jonah3107lmao no, Luka could have the potential to be top 10 but he is not better than Mj, lebron, Kareem, Kobe, shaq, and Tim Duncan
Wemby isn’t injured yet has he?
I'm surprised Domantas Sabonis is nowhere on this list. He's playing his best basketball ever and he'll be 32 in 2029. Maybe you don't think he'll age well and won't be as physical? (Not roasting the non placement, just curious)
Ant at 9 is insane. He has had a better start to his career than basically every guy on this list.
Ant probably wont ever have a better year than 2nd year luka and hes in a even more inflated stats year in his 4th year already lol

@@Joeiscool447Shai better too
Ant is better defensively than Shai is better offensively, Ant has already proven he is a playoff guy, and is 3 years younger.
@@kipbarnhill8848 every advanced stat has SGA tremendously better on both offense and defense. The only player he trails overall this year is embiid statistically. Playoffs is another story
Ant at 9 is preposterous
Sengun is going to be a top 20 player next year. He’s already a top 30-40 player this year
Chet is better than Sengun. Have of the game is defense, and he is not a good defender. Chet is a premier rim protector, one of the best shooting bigs in the league, and has the base of a great playmaker(he doesn’t need to do it a lot because OKC has too much playmaking already). I like Sengun, but having him over Chet doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Chet is doing it on the best team in the west 23 games over .500, Sengun on the 12th team in the west 7 games under .500. It’s more about how good Chet will be than an anti Sengun stance though.
This won’t age well went Ant is wrecking the league in 5 years. (Prime Ant)
Ant Edwards is going to be top 5
Ignoring that Ant is 22 and already averaging 26.2/5.2/5.2 on good efficiency and is FOURTH in Defensive win shares.
I dunno what your issue with the Timberwolves or anything associated with them.. But you have ridiculous large market biases lol.
I think he'll be 1
Facts man hate Ant
Those stats aren’t impressive anymore. Luka, Giannis, Jokic, Shai, Booker, Mitchell, Haliburton, Tatum all averaging better. Apart from Giannis, I don’t think anyone will regress to the point where they are worse than Ant. Add in Wemby’s potential, Ja staying out of trouble and Ant can easily fall out of the top 10. I would put him 10th right now though
@@gggyy7104 You are also listing off all players who are at LEAST 2 if not 3 years older then Ant (Other then Wemby and Hali)
For a 5 years later video, 2 to 3 years make a LOT of sense, especially for a kid who started very well, and is improving every year. Not to mention.. that 26.3/5.2/5.3 now is on 38.6 from 3.
Funny enough...
Luka 119.6 ORat 116.2 DRat 3.4 Net
Ant 118.4 ORat 107.7 DRat 10.7 Net
Wemby 106.4 ORat 112.5 DRat -6.1 Net
Other Net Ratings/Ages:
Mitchell 11 at 27
Tatum 10.7 at 25 (26 in 2 weeks)
Booker 7.7 at 27
Jokic 8.7 just turned 29
Giannis 6.9 at 29
Shai 10.3 at 25
Hali 11.8 at 23 (24 in 9 days)
Ant 10.7 at 22 (not 23 until AUGUST)
So everyone you named other then Hali really... (outside of Ja.. honestly felt like disrespect having to go back nearly 2 seasons to get an accurate average)
Has either a lower Net Rating OR is 3-4 years older then Ant. And Mitchell stats only went up when he lost 2 starters giving him more shots/ball time (and is FIVE years older). Tatum averages the same, on the biggest superteam in the league.. and is 3.5 years older.
In 5 years Mitchell will be 32, Tatum nearly 31, Booker 32, Jokic 34, Giannis 34, Shai 30.
Only players on your list that will be under 30 in 5 years:
Hali (9 days away from 29)
Ant 27
Wemby 25
Ja 29
And even Ja is 2 years older then Ant.
You’re using net rating like a complete novice. The stat has FAR too much noise to be used for 1:1 player comparisons. We get it, you’re starting to get into advanced stats. You’re not ready yet
I agree with leaving Embiid off hes too much of a risk also tatum will be 19 not 30 although i think that luka will still be number 1
Tatum longevity will need to be studied
11:38 it's not that you're overrating age so much as you are underestimating how extended a player's prime has been over the past ten years. currently, prime is about 28-33 for skilled players. by then, i'd say 26-36. the window grows as players are preparing more wisely at a young age (wemby, chet) and longevity for everyone-especially athletes-becomes a critical factor.
And the advancement in technology like shoes, and trainers and stuff will help with injury prevention too hopefully extending careers and thus primes
@@zackdesilva4730 it’s mainly advancements in surgeries. Injury frequency hasn’t changed very much.
@@willrobbins2550 I mean, I hate to be that guy but do you have a source for that?
I’m just thinking like consider shoe technology and how much it’s advanced to give you slightly better jump, efficiency, cushion, whatever. It plays a role, even a slight one in preventing injuries, or at least should in theory.
@@zackdesilva4730 just look up year over year injury numbers. You can also look up how much the average recovery time has lowered for different major surgeries
@@zackdesilva4730 if you look up yearly injury statistics, injury frequency is at an all time high. However, if you look up how often typically “career ending” injuries end careers the number has decreased. Also the average recovery time of nearly every injury has lowered as well
ant at 9 is not something that will age well I think
I think Luka will be prime Luka in 5 years with Wemby just behind him and just entering into prime. That’s scary
Yep, and with Shai likely being just behind them. It's amazing how quick he got them to being respectable last year, and now they are an elite team. Jokic will likely still be elite as his game does not rely on athleticism at all (similar to how Vince Carter stayed in the league in his early 40s as he was always a good three point shooter, even when his athleticism declined) and Tatum will also be in the top 5, with a ring at some point being very likely (maybe this year). The list overall was REALLY good, as it's hard to rate people like Embiid due to injury history and Ja and Zion for that reason and that they rely on athleticism a LOT (remember that Blake and Amare declined FAST after their primes and Faried and Harrell are irrelevant now despite being exciting players when they were young, at least Blake and Amare developed jumpers to extend their careers). Derrick Rose was also super athletic, but with injury issues, so he declined super fast as well. The likes of LeBron are genetic freaks (especially since he was insanely athletic in Miami and his first Cavs run and never had serious injuries), as being this good when pushing 40 isn't the norm at all (Tom Brady was similar as he took the Bucs to a championship when he was over 40).
Wemby will not even be in his prime lol
@@kevinestes9800SGA is overrated. He is just having 1 fluke good season. He will revert to the mean in 5 years.

Franz doesn't have the athletic top end potential that the others have. He's a very good player but he's capped and top 20 is just not where he's going to end up.
@@Cardb33 franz is athletic he just isn’t bursty. Hes a fluid mover. You hurt say that because he’s white. And he’s defiently not done improving don’t comment on a sport you know nothing about.
@@UNCjockstrap Lol I know nothing about basketball cause I'm not a dumb fan who thinks Franz Wagner is going to be a top 20 player in the league? He's just not that level of player and doesn't have that potential. He's not even the best player on his own mid team. Top 20 in the league means best on your own team or a VERY good #2 that could run his own team which Franz isn't going to be. You actually think you know basketball cause you've convinced yourself Franz is gonna be a 25 a night scorer on good efficiency? There's a ton of young talent with way higher potential than Franz has and a lot of guys already better than him with as much or more potential and there's a lot of guys better than him today. I won't dismiss your take though if you really feel like he's got that potential let's hear your argument for it, I'd love to hear someone who's being serious try to argue that Franz has top 20 in the league potential.
@@Cardb33 two things, 1 on never said he’d be top 20 I was arguing the athletic part, and 2 I can make a better argument than you for him to be top 20 even though he isn’t.
Here is my argument for franz
I’ll get half the game out the way real quick there’s no debate he’s at least above average defensively on and off the ball
But to be top 20 you need elite offense, I seperate offemse into a few categories
Transition play: franz uses his length playmaking and finishing to be a good transition player, he isn’t Scottie level or anything close to it but he’s great and contributes to a good high paced offense
Playmaking: while he’s more a connective passer than a playmaker, and he doesn’t run much pick and roll, he’s still setting up his teammates he’s a versatile passer as well
Rim pressure: he isn’t super bursty but he uses his length and strides to attack the smallest advantages. He has a tight handle with some of the most advanced finishing moves in the league.
Shooting: He’s an average shooter already and makes shots off the dribble, catch, and off the move. His 3pt percentage suffers but his shooting versatility and free throw rates mixed with his touch around the basket indicate high upside as a shooter.
Now for you to say he can’t average an efficient 25 is wild considering he’s averaging a relatively effecient 22.
Now if he can improve his shooting he’s elite. Remember he’s 22yo and this good. He’s already one of the best no2s in the game he could become the best in years time.
Orlando Magic best player
No way Antony Edwards is only number 9, he should be in top 3 with Luka and Tatum. Wemby is over rated, he is only top 4 to 8 range for me
I have Ant 1
Chet only being an honorable mention is laughable
Yes, because SGA is stealing some of his Thunder. Chet will be top 10 but SGA, should not even be discussed. He is overrated
for me Franz will be in there for sure! He has so much room to improve and already avrg. 21-6-4 Everybody sleeping on him
Hundert Prozent richtig, was du da sagst, Bruderherz.
Ant @ 9??? Do you watch basketball?
Top 10 is super hard to predict but here is my top 5 in 5 years:
1. Luka
2. Wemby
3. SGA
4. Tatum
5. ANT
Giannis, Joker, Embid (if healthy), Booker, Halliburton, Sengun, Banchero, Maxey, Mitchell, Fox, Jackson Jr., Zion (if healthy), Morant (if healthy), Cunningham, Wagner all could be top 20 in any order you want tbh.
I’d put Ant and Paolo a lot higher tbh
Then you’d have to put Scottie a bit higher too. Him & Paolo are close
@@JustfranktbhScottie's better than Paolo in every statistical category outside of scoring
@@SkippaMcHavn true
ANT at only 9???? Are you serious Matt? ANT is easily better than #9 by next year already. Heck, he is better than Booker right now confidently.
ANT is already #13 in EPM and DARKO this season, #12 in Box DPM, #5 in Plus Minus, and #10 in On-Off Net Rating. Had he not played the three games where he was injured and where he only played 11 minutes, his average this season would be at 27/6/6.
Oh for comparison,
Booker is #14 in DARKO, #12 in EPM, #40 in Box DPM, #34 in Plus Minus, and #16 in On-Off Net Rating.
Its a SROS thing. He has an insane bias towards national media tropes.. and for some odd reason has a particular down on anything related to the Timberwolves. I honestly dunno why, but ALOT more people are noticing it.
He’s wrong with that one Ant will easily be a top 5 and sooner than 5 years imo
Ant isn’t even a top 10 guard in the NBA, let alone better than the best shooting guard. Booker is better than Ant and it’s not even debatable. Who knows what it will be like in 5 years but to say Ant is a top 10 player and better than Booker is plain wrong. Remember when you tried to say Ant was better than Lauri using advanced stats but you didn’t realize your favourite advanced stat actually favoured Lauri? 🤣🤣 That was funny. Ant still isn’t better than Lauri let alone Booker. The gap between them is like 15 spots difference.
@@gggyy7104
Lauri Markkanen is #27 in EPM, ANT is #12. Lauri is not even top 30 in DARKO and Box DPM. Lauri also has mediocre on-off net ratings and WOWY rating.
Look it up again kid, ANT has way better advanced stats than Lauri. Cry more because I cooked you last time in an argument.
@@kingdinodragonite3470 NOW he is, but what about 1 month ago, when you blatantly lied about Ant being higher than Lauri in EPM and expected me to believe it? Now let me ask you a few questions to prove your consistency. Who’s better, Hartenstein or Fox? Kevin Love or Sabonis? Nurkic or KAT? Dayron Sharpe or Ja Morant?
You try to act like you know basketball by bringing up all these horrible advanced stats but in reality it makes you look like an IDIOT. Picking and choosing which advanced stats to bring up as your ONLY argument doesn’t mean Ant is better. It doesn’t make you cool or mean you know basketball. It’s the exact opposite. You look like a clown right now. Ant isn’t even a top 10 GUARD in the NBA.

Jokic is taller and stronger than Sengun. I think his physicality plays a big part in his dominance, and I’m not sure Sengun will be able to reach that level. Skillset wise, they are very comparable though
he’s not taller just fatter that’s all
physicality and 3-points shot what Sengun lacks offensively. defensively he is better as he is more mobile. rim protection both suck
Jokic will retire in 5 years. He hates basketball
If Sengun is 80-90% Jokic, even that would be insane but he always surprises us. We will see.
Yes. Jokic isn't fast and doesn't jump high, but man that boy is strong and big. He is also surprisingly quick with first step

@@hectorrocks087775Luka has been playing legendary basketball for 5 years now, we have no idea if Wemby will drop off or not.
You can tell how much someone watches NBA basketball by what their opinion of Jaylen Brown is. lol
Wild to think people are so at odds with him when he was second team all nba last year and he’s playing better this year than he was last year as a whole. Even if his numbers are down because of Boston’s depth
This Cooper Flagg gas 😂😂
Cant wait to come back to this in 2029
no bam is wild, ant at 9 is also crazy talk. he top3 in 5 years
I don't get these lists. Nobody predicted that Giannis or Jokic would be the best 2 players in basketball their first two years in the league. For all we know we could see Deni Avdija or Keyonte George crack the top 15
It makes for interesting conversation. Of course not everyone will agree with it and in 5 years there will be many risers and fallers.
What about Bam Adebayo?
What about him lol
"There are plenty of guys in their 30s currently in the top 10..." and then you name big men and a shooter.
But Brunson, Young, Brown , Mitchell are guards relying in athleticism!
(horrible list IMHO)
Man u really overrated Cade Cunningham a lot
You a cade hater
This is so pointless man. No one would have had Giannis or Jokic on their list when they were coming in the league. This is just engagement farming
Quit engaging then...With your weak lil negative opinion tree you decided to plant on this farm. 😂
I’m really pulling for Brandon Miller to become a star. It would be cool to see the Hornets get a winning season behind him and Lamello Ball and Mark Williams and Tidjane Salaun. Would probably only be a first round team but would still be cool to see them properly develop.
Wembanyama really should've been an All-Star this season. The only reason he's not is because of the Spurs roster.
He's the first player to average 20 PTS/10 REB/3 BLK since *MVP SHAQ* in 2002. Pretty All-Star worthy.
In five years that dude will be so riddled with injuries he might not even be playing
Tyrese Maxi not ahead of some of those guys in 5 years is insane
Alperen drafted 16th in his draft class. Now he arguable the best player in that class. He is 16th in your list. He would probably be top 3 in 5 years, or 2nd just after webmy.
Wemby would be number 1 if he will not be bug by injury. But Luka is like Lebron in terms of injury.

Scottie Barnes will be a top 5 player in 5 years, gonna be elite on the offense and defense 🥱
Wemby
Luka
Scottie B
Edwards
Paolo
(I'm definitely not a biased Raptor fan)
it doesn't mean you're biased you just actually watch scottie unlike the rest of the league lmao.
Scottie will be a top 2-3 two-way player in the league
I think kuminga deserves a honorable mention if he’s on a new team he’ll be so good
Why a new team?? He’s doing good on the warriors
He’s gonna be top 15 even if he’s on the warriors he plays great for us
@@blazegaming9203 top 15? Okay relax bud he got away to go
@@Justfranktbh I mean he’s averaged 20 plus in last 15 games and has gotten a lot better at most things and had some games were he had 30 points and 10 rebounds on good effiency we are talking about 5 years from now so I could easily see him being top 20 or 15
@@blazegaming9203 if he plays that good for the rest of the season we can have that argument for sure
Missed Brandon Ingram and Tyrese Maxey I think, also Luka will be under 30 in 5 years so he should still be number 1 if he’s top three right now
Anthony Edwards and alperaine seguin left the chat
Ant too low
Not having Chet in the top 10 invalidates the list.
Aye you sleep on Traes D, bros not OG or Gobert but he’s been a menace in the passing lanes this year and in the clutch he’s been a solid team defender, sort of how Curry in his prime was
He’s substantially below average based on defensive rating league average this year is 116.1 his is 123.3 this year.
@@BobSmith-kw6mg but comparing him to himself he’s grown some, again I didn’t say he was lock down I’m just saying he’s in that same state as 2016 Steph who lead the league in steals but we all know he wasn’t the defensive focal point, he even got hunted in the Playoffs but he wasn’t unplayably bad
@@patrickwilson9829 it also doesn't help that his team is the worst in the league by defensive rating. The warriors were able to cover for Steph by having better defensive help that the hawks don't have right now
Ant man at #9 ?! He easily is top 3 on this prediction
I think that 5 years from now Ben Simmons will be ROTY
It’s so cool to see that Halliburton and sengun are guys that’s are breaking out. Those were my single two favorite or “sleeper” prospects I’ve evaluated since I started scouting and it feels so good to be right about them and see how much better their getting year in and year out. I think they can both be top ten in the league and potential mvps one day with how much they’re growing.
It's disappointing to see LaMelo didn't make the top 20, but I get it because there are too many questions about his health. He had several consecutive 30+ point games early this season before running into ankle issues yet again. If he's healthy, he could be top 10 in 5 years. He's easily one of the best passers in the league with ridiculous 3 point range.
No mention of Bam is insane, he’ll only be 31. Hes already a top 25 player and will definitely be there
lol ur funny
I appreciate the effort but you need to watch more Scottie Barnes. 18 is a travesty. He’ll be top ten in five years.
Ant #1 wemby is an injury away from being Shawn Bradley
Hater
@brandonwilliams2320 I'd say Ant at #7 is a hater, why you hating Shawn bradley..lol
ANTS AT LEAST TOP 4 by 2028
It's hard to made those type of list but the top 6 make sense (in no particular order for me).
I will rank Edwards in 7 above Mitchell or Booker.
Welp in 5 years we go make fun of this list
Not having Chet on here is crazy
Chet is basically just a slightly better shooting Evan Mobley. Still obviously a great player but I don’t know if it’s top 20 level
@@jadenmoyers837 He’s in his rookie year. It’s crazy to think he won’t be a top player if we are projecting
But that is silly just on the face of it. If Mobley was a willing 3 point shooter and could hit 39% (and remember pre rookie wall he was in the mid 40’s) Mobley would be an all-star.
@@jadenmoyers837 Chet is a significantly better shooter than Mobley, a better ball handler and is already more impactful as a rookie.
@@simonanderson4858 to be fair I never said he wasn’t any of those things
No Chet is laughable
I know AD will be 35 but not even an honorable mention?!
Bros be lucky to be able to walk at 35 😂
ANT at #1 and CAT top 10!!!
Kuminga should at least be an honorable mention tbh
Top 15 at least. He's hungry.
@@fredjohnson4057I was gonna say this, but didn’t want people to get mad and say I was biased lmao
No maxey is crazy, hes not even in his prime and hes putting up really good numbers
As a frenchman I'm a big fan of Victor. But no Chet on this list is crazy. And Anthony Edwards will be a top 5 player doo.
Scottie at 18 is so disrespectful goddam… and im just a bulls fans too saying ts😭
Ikr the audacity to put cade and sengun above the ROY and first allstar in his draft class is disgusting. The guy who says he was completely wrong about his take when the Raptors drafted Scottie, he sure does overlook him a lot. Some people don't learn from their mistakes I swear 😂
It is crazy how people still underrestamate trae young just because his team is not doing well and refuse to look at the actual stats and numbers mindblowing
Ant should be at least to 5 this is crazy
Agreed 100%. 26.2/5.2/5.2 and 4th in DWS at 22.. with a couple games where he tried to play injured holding those stats down more. And he is only getting better to where he plays with his prey during games now. But... its not a large market, and SROS has something against the Timberwolves especially for some reason.
He also plays great on ball defense
I have him 1
Bam at 31 years old isn't even a top 30 player 😂
Chet is legit Giannis-light and Giannis is top 2 in the league so how did Chet not make a spot? His offensive #s are also swayed bc his team has SGA and JDub, so what holds him back for you?
Ant and banchero will be top 5 fashoo
I honestly do not understand these claims about Wemby. He shoots 47% from the field as a center, he is below average to bad 3 point and mid range shooter. He puts up points on the worst team in the NBA, honestly, he shouldn't even be a ROTY. Chet does similar things defesively, but is much better shooter and out side scorer.
